Now More Than Ever
Always Remember is a six-month series of free, virtual screenings designed to raise Holocaust awareness through cinema. Each month from June through November, we’ll offer a selection of films designed to amplify unique voices and experiences relating to the Holocaust, highlighting LGBTQ+ stories, women’s perspectives, stories of resistance, youth experiences and more.
The titles featured in the series include a mix of feature-length and short films; both animated and live action, fiction and nonfiction. Engaging, exclusive interviews with some of the series’ filmmakers will be included to help viewers dive even deeper into the material.
At a time when Holocaust awareness is at an all-time low and levels of antisemitism are on the rise, our commitment to Always Remember is more important now than ever.
