The Eighty-First Blow 
An historical document made up of footage and stills shot by the Nazis.

The Last Sea   
When survivors of the Holocaust realized that they had neither a home to return to nor families to welcome them, thousands set out on the perilous journey to the Land of Israel. They travelled by truck or by train, many went by foot over the Alps; they had to cross the sea aboard dangerously overcrowded ships. The faces of the witnesses are never shown, only their voices are heard, as they retell stories of survival and redemption.

"Gigantic in scope."-Elie Wiesel
