About the Work
Imagine what we would have seen if a girl who lived during the Holocaust had had a smartphone, social networks and could have documented everything she was experiencing. Our campaign for Holocaust Remembrance Day, showed youngsters exactly that. “What if a Girl during the Holocaust had Instagram” follows Eva Heyman, a 13-year-old Hungarian Holocaust victim, as she documents the last months of her life before being taken to Auschwitz. The campaign is based on a true story, adapted from the diary Eva Heyman left behind in 1944. For the purpose of the campaign, we created a fictional Instagram account to document Eva’s life during the Holocaust and recounted her plight in a first-person style to directly engage the post-Millennial generation—a demographic less connected to Holocaust Remembrance Day and what it commemorates. The campaign met its audience on-screen—where they spend their time—and educated them directly on social media. To direct people to Eva’s page we created a teaser campaign. Then on Holocaust Remembrance Day we went live. Over 24 hours we uploaded 220 Instagram stories to Eva’s page with the last story airing on May 2nd , just as Holocaust Remembrance Day ended.
