Twelve films have been produced by the
Foundation including seven, which are focused
on the rescue of Jewish fugitives by non-jews
during the Holocaust. These films document
extraordinary acts of courage by ordinary
people in Germany, Greece, Italy, Poland and
Scandinavian countries.
More recent programs were filmed in
Macedonia and Croatia, which reflect resolution
of inter-community conflicts in spite of the
continuing legacy of ethnic and religious
bias.
Our films have been shown by 24 U.S.
public television stations, at museums
including the U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum in
Washington,DC, at universities, embassies,
faith-based organizations, and at many U.S.
high schools.
The films have also been exhibited at
national and international film competitions
and have won Gabriel, Telly, Aegis, and CINE
Golden Eagle Awards. Volunteer narrators of the
films have included Liv Ullmann, Eli
Wallach, Alan Alda, Theodore
Bikel, Irene Papas, Uta Hagen,
Marvin Kalb and Bettina
Gregory.
