2 or 3 Things I Know About Him
What would your family reminiscences about dad sound like if he had been an early supporter of Hitler’s, a leader of the notorious SA and the Third Reich’s minister in charge of Slovakia, including its Final Solution? Executed as a war criminal in 1947, Hanns Ludin left behind a grieving widow and six young children, the youngest of whom became a filmmaker. It's a fascinating, maddening, sometimes even humorous look at what the director calls "a typical German story." (Film Forum)

The Man Who Made Angels Fly
When the lights dim and the stage is revealed, Meschke channels life through the strings of his puppets, triggering the spiritual connection between the creator and his alter-egos: the charismatic Don Quixote, the loving Penelope, the inquisitive Baptiste, or the mysterious Antigone. THE MAN WHO MADE ANGELS FLY is a poetic story about a master of his craft that has inspired audiences to reflect upon common issues of suffering and the mortal coil. Visionary and un-biographic, imaginary tribute to the puppeteer.

The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.

Giving a new perspective on what it means to be a survivor, this film begins at the end of World War II. The six women featured are strong as hell and delightfully hopeful given the circumstances they have lived through.

Amazing story about what it means to "go home," after war. This documentary follows the lives of six extraordinary women and what it meant for them to be liberated from Auschwitz. Traditionally we celebrate liberation as a victory, but this film makes you think about what that liberation meant to women who had no money, no homes and few or no relatives to go home to after having just survived the trauma of Auschwitz. As much about the Holocaust as it is about the challenges of returning to society from war and severe trauma, this movie is very timely as we welcome back veterans from the Gulf War. A must see movie.
