The Happiest Man on Earth
Meet your new friend, Eddie. He's never spoken publicly about his past but wants to share his story now,
with his children, his grandchildren, and you.
In seventy awe-inspiring minutes, Eddie recalls his father's generosity against the rising tide of fascism, the childhood friend who became his Nazi guard, and his narrow escapes from starvation, disease, death marches,
and the gas chambers of two concentration camps during the Holocaust. After the war, Eddie is free but haunted by fear. Until love leads him to his wife, and his kind soul surrounds him with children and family who only want to understand him better. Eddie will inspire you to face life's darkest moments with courage, choose love over despair, and share your joy with those you love most.
