E' questa un'immagine che, io che amo le foto "allegre" e ricche di colori, non avrei mai voluto scattare e non perché in questa foto manchino i colori ma perché avrei preferito, senza alcun dubbio, che non fosse mai esistita questa tragica ed orrenda storia e che non ci fosse nulla di così drammatico da ricordare. Sulla riva del Danubio, non lontano dal palazzo del Parlamento Ungherese, sono allineate sessanta paia di scarpe dall'aria vissuta, che ricordano la moda degli anni '40. Ci sono scarpe da donna, da uomo e da bambino, lasciate lì, vicino all'acqua, abbandonate in modo disordinato, come se i loro proprietari se le fossero appena tolte. Se si guarda più da vicino, si vede che le scarpe sono di ferro, arrugginite, fissate nel calcestruzzo del molo. E' l'inquietante e triste memoriale, conosciuto come "Le Scarpe sulle rive del Danubio", concepito dal regista Can Togay, che lo ha realizzato insieme allo scultore Gyula Pauer sulla riva di Pest, nel 2005, in onore degli ebrei ungheresi che, nell'autunno-inverno del 1944-45, furono trucidati sulle rive del Danubio dai miliziani del Partito delle Croci Frecciate. Sparare agli ebrei sul Danubio era conveniente, perché il fiume portava via i corpi. In alcuni casi gli aguzzini legavano insieme le mani di due o tre ebrei, adulti o bambini, poi sparavano solo ad uno di loro: le vittime, posizionate sul bordo dell'acqua, cadevano tutte insieme nel Danubio, con il cadavere che trascinava con sé i corpi delle persone ancora vive, in modo da risparmiare sui proiettili. Tutti i corpi, legati insieme dalle corde e dal destino, o andavano a fondo o scivolavano via lungo il fiume. Quei pochi che sopravvivevano alle gelide acque del fiume venivano uccisi dai miliziani che sparavano dalla riva in un tragico ed infame tiro al bersaglio. Per non dimenticare.

An image, a document in which history has left an unerasable trace of human brutality. Hello Paul and congratulations for the idea and the caption. Emanuele.

So many compliments Paul, as always, propose real documents.
I think that, however, the reflection that must be made, must necessarily be addressed in our present.
Overo, since the past events have made us as we are, it is not the case to ask what our actions will produce.
Are we helping to form a good or bad society?
Here I stop, because the reasons for reflection are really so many and very serious, here in this space, we only celbriamo what is a passion, a recreational act.
still many compliments my friend, a loving hug
Tiziano
