Comments About the Film

---

...a powerful teaching tool on the effects of Nazi terrorism on succeeding generations. By demonstrating how prejudice and bigotry does not by itself diminish with the passing of time, the tragic story of Lidice is a legacy for all people...The fact that the film deals with a non-Jewish incident, the impact of evil on children and subsequent generations is one which must be communicated to a mass audience.

                                                                    Karen Friedman, Director, ADL Braun Holocaust Institute

An excellent and multifaceted film about coming to grips with a horrific event; powerfully instructive on how the ways in which we remember the past impacts on present and future generations....In the many gripping stories presented here, memory defies the ultimate intentions of the Nazis and provides timely warnings on the universal dangers of prejudice, ethnic hatred, and aggressive war.

Interweaving the tragedy of Lidice and the wounds of memory, In the Shadow of Memory is a necessary reminder of unforgettable scars and our continuing need to confront them.
