Many of the adults in the movie become numb to their emotions because they know that there is a very slim chance that they will make it out of the holocaust alive. I think that the girl being in color represents the children’s hope that everything will turn out all right.
As the title of the novel suggests, the color yellow is one of the largest and most important symbols in A Yellow Raft in Blue Water.

Whilst blue presents peacefulness and the surface level luke-warm affability between white and black folk, the red buildings show that hatred caused by racism continues to boil underneath.

I assigned Hans the accordion and the color pink to represent Hans’s character. The accordion represents to him a friend he once knew who saved his life (Page 176 and 178). To Hans the accordion is also representative of a way to make money when times are hard, a friend who he once knew that died in a tragic way, and to others in the story, like Rosa, the accordion is a continual reminder of him (Page 33). The accordion is also similar to Hans’s attitude because it is very lively, much like himself. The color pink represents Hans because pink is often associated with loving, caring and comfort which are three characteristics of Hans.
