Klappentext zu „On the Rope “
The compelling story of how the quiet artisan Reinhold Duschka (1900-1993) came to save two lives in Vienna during the Nazi rule. Duschka managed to hide Jewish mother Regina and her daughter Lucia in his workshop for four years. The three of them were tied together with an invisible rope, surviving by luck and mutual trust. What happened afterwards is explored and the humble and honest Duschka is why this story touches so much. This story wouldn't exist without the promise that Lucia Heilman gave to herself: To honour the passionate alpinist Reinhold Duschka who saved her and her mother from the deportation to a Nazi-German concentration camp. Based on Lucia's memories, Erich Hackl covers the dramatic if monotonous years in the hide out, to the immediate present. Hackl's exact language, which is glowing with passion, not only brings to life saviours and saved - it forces us to acknowledge the current relevance of this story, living in a Europe where civil courage is needed more than ever
