The walk consists of two closely interrelated parts: the first takes the listener back to the period up to 10th December 1944, the day the ghetto gates were sealed, guided by a female narrator who instructs and leads the listener along the trail of a press photographer who lost his job due to the Jewish laws. In the second part, events that took place during the ghetto's existence are evoked from the perspective of the man himself, now patrolling the streets as a ghetto warden.

Audio clips are triggered automatically by the listener's spatial geolocation data as they arrive at each location.

Starting point: corner of Síp Street and Dohány Street.

End point: Dohány Street Synagogue.
