EDITH BRUCK: THE WOMAN AND THE SHOAH is an intimate and touching documentary of inestimable historical value, directly narrated by writer and poetess Edith Bruck, who is one of the last survivors of the Holocaust. Her books have been successfully published in Italy, France, Hungary, Croatia, UK, Germany, Israel, Poland and Holland. Through her firsthand experience of the violence of Nazism and the lagers, as well as her ongoing struggle against persecution, antisemitism, and racism, Ediths story serves as a powerful reminder of the atrocities committed during World War II. Her voice, as both a writer and a survivor, offers a unique and invaluable perspective on this dark chapter of history.

(112,187 posts)It was... strange to have such a skewed audience. I am no spring chicken, mind you, but I felt like one compared to everyone else in the theater. I just HOPE this is an artifact of early showings, as younger people REALLY need to go see this!

I was not aware of Douglas Kelly's story, but am glad to have been made aware.
