Israeli actress Gal Gadot hosted at her California home a small gathering with a local Holocaust survivor who shared her life story and experiences during World War II with Gadot\u2019s friends and family to coincide with Holocaust Remembrance Day on Tuesday.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cHearing her testimony about the horrors she and her family went through and seeing the strong inspiring woman she became, left no dry eye in the room,\u201d Gadot wrote in the caption of a photo slide she posted on Instagram from the event featuring Celina Biniaz. \u201cAt the end of her testimony Celina looked to me and said \u2013\u00a0 \u2018life is just like what you said in your\u00a0Wonder Woman<\/em>\u00a0movie \u2013 only love can save the world\u2019 and this moment will stay with me forever,\u201d added the actress, whose\u00a0grandfather also survived the Holocaust.<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n

Oskar Schindler was a German factory owner whose saved thousands of Jews from being murdered in the Holocaust by employing them at his factories during World War II. Biniaz was the youngest female that Schindler rescued, also known as those on Schindler\u2019s List, according to the USC Shoah Foundation, which has also recorded\u00a0her life testimony<\/a>\u00a0for its visual history archive.<\/span><\/p>\n

Biniaz was born in Krakow, Poland, on May 28, 1931. She previously\u00a0said<\/a>\u00a0she was 8 years old when the Nazis invaded Poland. Biniaz and her mother were part of the transport of women who were accidentally sent to the Plaszow concentration camp instead of Schindler\u2019s factory. She was also transferred to Auschwitz concentration camp and when Schindler discovered the mistake, he personally made sure the two women went to the factory with him.<\/span><\/p>\n

Biniaz and her parents survived the Holocaust because of Schindler\u2019s efforts and the family later immigrated to the United States, where Biniaz became a teacher. She did not speak out about the ordeal she faced during the Holocaust for 45 years, opening up only after seeing Steven Spielberg\u2019s Oscar-winning film\u00a0Schindler\u2019s List<\/em>, she told the USC Shoah Foundation.<\/span><\/p>\n

Biniaz\u2019s testimony in front of Gadot\u2019s friends and family was followed by a performance by Israeli musician Tomer Adaddi. The gathering was organized by Zikaron BaSalon, an Israeli organization that works around the world to help facilitate intimate events where Holocaust survivors can share their testimonies with small groups.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cThere are fewer and fewer survivors each memorial day and by the year 2035 there will no longer be any survivors left to tell their stories,\u201d Gadot concluded her Instagram post by saying. \u201cIt is our responsibility to keep sharing these stories, for ourselves and for the world \u2013 to hear, to know, to learn. To never forget.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n
