ABOUT

Join the only film series devoted to the Holocaust in the movie-making capital of the world. Each film screening is followed by panel discussions with noted journalist/author Tom Teicholz, cast or crew from the film, renowned historians, and Holocaust survivors.

AWARD-WINNING FILMS

This year we revisit notable Holocaust films that have shaped public discourse and added to collective awareness of the scope of the Holocaust. From Schindler’s List, which proved to be a turning point in Holocaust awareness and discussion, to Inglourious Basterds which illustrates the power of cinema to explore myth, propaganda, and revenge—these award winners are an enduring reminder of the power of storytelling through film.
