Holocaust Movies

Life is Beautiful


A great movie about the holocaust is Life is Beautiful. It is about a little boy and his father that end up in a concentration camp on the little boys birthday. The father pretends like the whole thing is a game, and they get points for little things. The little boy believes his father the entire time. I wont spoil the end but you must know this is not a movie for kids.

The Movie


Although the movie is in Italian there are captions at the bottom. I have to say Life is Beautiful is truly a great movie. It shows love, Passion, and sincerity. The father in this movie is so Loving for his wife and son. The movie is based on true events that actually happened. Although the movie is not real the idea is. this movie impacts people in a way most people would not think of. I am not the kind of person to cry but this movie even got me crying. That's how powerful the movie really is.

The holocaust and me

How I Learned...

An event that happened decades ago still has an impact on us today: The holocaust. I started being passionate about the holocaust around age 8. when I first heard about it I was horrified. As I went to school that fall I asked if we were going to learn about the Holocaust. To my surprise, a few kids behind me who were listening asked what the holocaust was.  I didn't think they would not know what the holocaust was.

The Holocaust...


I tried to explain what it was but I was lost for words. So I did some research and found out a lot of things. In my synagogue there are a couple of holocaust survivers. So I asked to hear there stories. They were horrible, daring, adventures, and more. I'm not related to any holocaust suvivers and luckily all my relitives escaped. Therefore an event that is history is not actually history. It is something that has an impact on the way we think, feel, and act towards eachother every day.
