As a follow-up to WQED’s PBS national documentary, “Harbor from the Holocaust” this 30-minute local documentary examines the Pittsburgh connections to a little-known story of Jews who found refuge in Shanghai during the Holocaust. Segments include the stories of a Chinese diplomat who saved thousands of people by providing visas, a woman who taught scores of Jewish refugee children, and the remembrances of a Pittsburgh man born in the Shanghai ghetto.
