Defiant Requiem

On Sunday 23 April, Erev Yom Hashoah, we will be showing the film Defiant Requiem, the little-known story of the Nazi concentration camp, Terezín. Led by imprisoned conductor Rafael Schächter, the inmates of Terezín fought back...with

art and music. Through hunger, disease and slave labor, the Jewish inmates of Terezin hold onto their humanity by staging plays, composing opera and using paper and ink to record the horrors around them. Click here for more details on the film and its making.
