Thursday, October 20
The Miami Jewish Film Festival and The Sue and Leonard Miller Center for Contemporary Judaic Studies, the Holocaust Memorial Miami Beach, and the Holocaust Teacher Institute at the University of Miami are proud to announce their seventh annual Screening the Holocaust Film Series. For the first time in nearly three years, the free community program will return to an in-person and in-theater experience at the Miami Beach JCC, and will be complemented with featured speakers and talk-backs moderated by Dr. Miriam Klein Kassenoff, Education Director of the Holocaust Institute at the University of Miami.
The program kicks off on Thursday, October 20 with a special presentation of the internationally acclaimed film Three Minutes – A Lengthening, which premiered at the 2022 Miami Jewish Film Festival. Produced by Steve McQueen and narrated by Helena Bonham Carter, this one-of-a-kind documentary transforms rare color home-movie footage shot in 1938 Poland into a testament to victims of the Holocaust.
The series continues through the month of December showcasing even more acclaimed films, including the provocative documentary Final Account, as well as Winter Journey, notable for being the final screen role of legendary German actor Bruno Ganz.
