Description: |
Facing Arthur Film Screening July 2016 at Holocaust Memorial and Tolerance Center of Nassau Count, Long Island, New York.
The Holocaust Memorial and Tolerance Center of Nassau County (HMTC) presents, as part of the Reel Upstanders David Taub Film Series, a screening of the HBO documentary "Facing Arthur" narrated by Susan Sarandon.
"Facing Arthur" follows the extraordinary relationship between a young German volunteer from Action Reconciliation for Peace who is the grandson of a soldier in Hitler's Wehrmacht, and a 101 year-old Holocaust Survivor who is too frail to leave his apartment. From their first painful conversations, they discover that while history is unchangeable, they share a passion for music and art that transcends their differences and generations. The facilitator of the film will be a representative from Action Reconciliation for Peace, an organization that for 50 years has been committed to working toward reconciliation and peace, as well as fighting racism, discrimination and social exclusion.
HMTC's film series was established in honor of David Taub (1932-2010), a Holocaust Survivor and respected friend to the Center. |
