Ambulance
An ambulance, traditionally viewed as a rescue vehicle, becomes filmmaker Janusz
Morgenstern’s symbol for the Nazi horror that destroyed millions of Jews. Though
unable to offer his students physical resistance and protection, a teacher
offers them spiritual resistance. Modeled after the hero Janusz Korczak, the
adult Jew maintains his dignity and comforts his students until the bitter end.
As the children and their teacher are driven away, the viewer is left with their
haunting images. This “discussion starter” video is accompanied by a study
guide by Dr. David Roskies.

of Jewish resistance in Europe before and during the War. Produced by the
Ghetto Fighters' House in Israel.
"A powerful film, crafted with skill and sensitivity.
The viewer is engulfed from start to finish."
-Chaim Herzog,
Former President of Israel
