Event: Film: Angels of Austria

Wednesday January 27, 2010
7:30 PM until 9:00 PM


Filmmaker Judy Faust presents her documentary, "Angels of Austria:  The Church that Reached Out to Holocaust Survivors" on International Holocaust Remembrance Day

The film chronicles an Austrian church's attempts to reverse centuries of anti-semitism in their hometown by inviting Jewish Holocaust survivors formerly of Wiener Neustadt to return for a Week of Reconciliation in 1995. Judy Faust accompanies her mother, Trudy, and together they embark on an emotional roller coaster ride of grief, compassion, and healing. Christians and Jews explore their painful pasts while creating historic milestones they hope will mark an era of friendship and understanding. But how will Judy's mother forgive the descendants of the Third Reich when she hasn't even forgiven herself for not saving her father?
Q & A with Judy Faust to follow screening.
