Elsa Breuer attempts to describe what it truly feels like to be hungry. She then describes the discipline she had to adopt, saving food in the morning so she had something to nibble on throughout the day while in Auschwitz. This is the 19th testimony clip in the series 70 Days of Testimony: Leading up to the 70th Anniversary of the Liberation of Auschwitz.
