Through hand-drawn animation and eyewitness testimony, this powerful documentary reveals how a peaceful town was shattered by the Holocaust. Directed by Yoav Potash and executive produced by Dr. Anita Friedman, it is both a murder mystery and a call to remembrance.
Lessons That Inspire Action
During its successful Bay Area debut, more than 250 middle and high school students gathered in San Francisco for screenings of Among Neighbors.
One student reflected, “This movie taught me that one person can change so many lives.”
