About the Speaker
Dr. Andras Lacko was born in Budapest, Hungary in 1936. In a twist of fate, Lacko contracted scarlet fever in 1944 which saved him from ghettoization and subsequent deportation to Poland. He survived the Holocaust in a military hospital and was later reunited with his mother and father after the Soviet liberation of Budapest.

$16 Member | $22 Public
Directed by Charlie Chaplin
Satire | 125 minutes | English
The Great Dictator was Charlie Chaplin's first talkie—a bold, satirical attack on Hitler and fascism, years before the United States entered World War II. Chaplin used humor and his uncanny resemblance to Hitler to expose the tyranny and repression. Chaplin produced the film himself after studios warned that it would never be shown in the UK or the US; it was later nominated for five Academy Awards. This work of resistance is a powerful plea for democracy and humanity and remains highly relevant today.

Description:
Sons of Survivors, written by Aron Hirt-Manheimer and Marty Yura is a dual memoir that traces the colorful growing-up adventures of two sons of survivors through fast-paced alternating passages. Though the Holocaust formed the backdrop of their lives, it was only as older adults that they set out to try to piece together what happened to their families during the war -- and to bear witness.
For Aron, the most powerful revelations were contained in a nearly forgotten memoir written by his uncle fifty years earlier in Argentina. Marty’s breakthrough came after participating in a Zen Peacemakers immersion retreat on the killing fields of Auschwitz-Birkenau. Navigating through this haunted terrain together, the friends realized that the love they inherited from their parents transcends the trauma. Their joint memoir attests to a legacy of love against hate.
Hirt-Manheimer and Yura will be in conversation about their book with Dr. Michael Berenbaum.

Documentary | 2024 | 100 min | Poland | English, Polish, Hebrew, Latvian, Lithuanian
For decades, the world believed Jews went to their deaths like sheep to the slaughter during the Holocaust. Resistance: They Fought Back powerfully challenges that myth, revealing the largely untold story of Jewish resistance. This groundbreaking documentary chronicles more than 60 armed uprisings and thousands of Jewish partisans across Europe. Through historians’ insights and firsthand testimony from survivors and families, the film illuminates a courageous, long-overlooked chapter of history.
