Narrated by Emmy Award® winner Martin Sheen and two-time Academy Award® nominee Liv Ullmann, Fate Did Not Let Me Go tells the extraordinary story of the farewell letter written by Valli Ollendorff to her son just days before her death in a Nazi concentration camp in 1942. Lost for nearly 50 years, the letter mysteriously arrived in 1985 when her son Ulrich was 79 years old. This award-winning documentary has already been broadcast on more than 160 PBS stations across America.

Fate Did Not Let Me Go is also available in a special hardcover edition, beautifully illustrated with more than 25 photographs, a foreword by Stephen Ollendorff and biographical information on the Ollendorff family.
