"Rene & I" is about love, horror, courage and survival. It is the story of twins, their special bond, and the brutal yet benevolent treatment they received in the death camps. These twins survived the un-survivable. It was during their years in Auschwitz that they encountered the infamous Dr. Josef Mengele, Chief Medical Doctor, who continually saved their lives for one purpose: human experimentation. Only the rarest number of children stayed alive, and Rene and Irene are some of the last living witnesses to this time. At its heart, Rene & I is also about second chances and the amazingly arbitrary events and coincidences in life that can change a child's fate forever. More than any detailed account of the Holocaust, Rene & I is a story of two children who overcame adversity against all odds. It is a tribute to the endurance of the human spirit, and to the triumph of good over evil.
