ABOUT

Join the only annual film series in Hollywood devoted to the Holocaust. Each film screening is followed by panel discussions with noted journalist/author Tom Teicholz, renowned historians, and Holocaust survivors.

RESISTANCE

The 2024 series focuses on resistance. Throughout the Holocaust, Jewish men, women, and children responded to Nazi oppression with various forms of spiritual, intellectual, cultural, and physical resistance. They also selflessly acted through armed resistance – in groups and alone – to save the lives of others. 

Generously supported by the Davidson-Hooker Fund, Edward F. Limato Foundation, and Richenthal Foundation.

THE AUSCHWITZ REPORT

Based on the incredible true story of two young Slovak Jews who, when they manage to escape from Auschwitz, compile a detailed report about the systematic genocide at the camp. However, with Nazi propaganda and international liaisons still in place, their account seems to be too harrowing to believe.
