The Ice Cream Man
The incredible true story of Ernst Cahn, a beloved Jewish ice cream parlor owner who in 1941 was targeted, arrested, and tortured by the infamous "Butcher of Lyon" Klaus Barbie. The choices Cahn made sparked a series of events that led to over 300,000 Dutch citizens going on strike and shutting down Amsterdam for three days, in what became the largest anti-Nazi protest in history.

Kinder Doll: A Kindertransport Story
The story is based on the Kindertransport rescue effort during World War II, which enabled thousands of unaccompanied children to travel from Nazi-occupied Europe to the United Kingdom. It follows two fictional children, Otto and Edith, who board a train to Britain with their most prized possessions — a teddy bear and a doll.
Six students — one of whom is now an alum — in the Bass School animated the film, set to debut at UT Dallas’ celebration of International Animation Day on Oct. 28.
The project was led by Dr. Christine Veras, assistant professor of arts, technology and emerging communication and director of the experimenta.l. Animation Lab, in partnership with the Ackerman Center for Holocaust Studies. The film’s debut coincides with an exhibit at the Dallas Holocaust and Human Rights Museum, honoring the rescue of 10,000 Jewish children and the lasting legacy of the Kindertransport, when the UK accepted refugee children escaping the Holocaust.
Runtime: 7 minutes
