  • AHEC Holocaust in Film Series: Life is Beautiful

    Sidewalk Film Center & Cinema 1821 2nd Avenue North, Birmingham

    The AHEC invites you to join us for the second screening of our 13th annual Holocaust in Film Series: Rescue, Escape and Liberation, sponsored by the Perlman Donor Advised Fund. On March 3rd at Sidewalk Film Center & Cinema, we will screen the award-winning classic film “Life is Beautiful.” This film explores how Jewish parents during the Holocaust struggled to shield their children from Nazi brutality and how all Jewish individuals found ways to mentally and emotionally escape the brutality and deprivations they experienced in concentration camps, labor camps, and ghettos. Following the screening, Michele Forman—a second-generation Survivor, award-winning documentarian, and UAB media studies professor—will lead a discussion about the film to deepen audience understanding of the various ways people escaped or found freedom during the Holocaust.  Tickets are $10 per person.
