This chilling Holocaust documentary — for adult audiences only — reveals the barbaric genocide of 220,000 people, or 95% of Lithuania’s Jews. Jonas Noreika was a Nazi collaborator personally responsible for slaughtering 8,000 men, women, and children, but is still revered as a Lithuanian “National Hero.” Interviews with Noreika’s own granddaughter, Silvia Foti, and a Jewish grandson whose family was murdered by Noreika, follow their parallel quests to expose the truth and bring some measure of justice to the victims.

Michael Kretzmer’s visit is underwritten by the Doreen Joffe and Sharon Kagan Founders Fund
