In this moving documentary, the last surviving Jewish partisans tell the little-known story of their four years in the forests of Ukraine and Poland, who organized to sabotage Nazis and their collaborators.
Screening is to be followed by a discussion with Anne Knowles (UMaine History) and Erica Nadelhaft (Education Coordinator, HHRC) moderated by Derek A. Michaud (UMaine Philosophy, Religious Studies, and Judaic Studies).
