For Tommy Ringart, it is sensitive to look at the pictures from the train platform at Auschwitz.

He looks at the faces of travelers.

- They are confused but calm.

They do not understand what to expect, he says.

What awaited was the infamous concentration camp built by Nazi Germany, where over one million were murdered and more became slave laborers.

The parents survived

Tommy Ringart is chairman of the Association of Holocaust Survivors, something that his father used to be.

Both parents were in the camp and got off on the same train platform that Tommy himself visited later in life.

After the war, they went with the white buses to Sweden in 1945. Ten years later, Tommy was born, but considering what his parents had been through, it was not a matter of course.

A push saved his life

When Tommy's father left the platform and was met by guards and other prisoners, he wanted to be with his parents.

Then he was pushed in another direction.

Where he ended up instead was slave labor - the other direction was the gas chamber.

- If it had not been for that push, I would not be standing here today.

The pictures from the train platform at the concentration camp come from an exhibition that opens in Malmö at the end of May and runs through September.
