Continuing and expanding upon the film project is the exhibition 'To Leave Something for the World. Beyond the Pages of Renia Spiegel's Diary'. The film is an integral part of the exhibition. While the film focuses on Renia herself, giving her voice primarily to her creators, the exhibition provides contextual information, quotes, and archival photographs to also narrate the stories of Renia's closest relatives and the diary itself.
'Now one must still live, one must try, strive, one must leave something for the world.' - these are the words of Renia Spiegel, recorded in her diary. They became the title and guiding principle of the new temporary exhibition at the Galicia Jewish Museum. Renia left the world much: a personal story of love, attachment, empathy, respect, universal human values, and an important message about threats to these values: hatred, exclusion, persecution.
