GayandRight

My name is Fred and I am a gay conservative living in Ottawa. This blog supports limited government, the right of the State of Israel to live in peace and security, and tries to expose the threat to us all from cultural relativism, post-modernism, and radical Islam. I am also the founder of the Free Thinking Film Society in Ottawa (www.freethinkingfilms.com)

Hitler, Stalin and I

Part of the 3rd Annual Free Thinking Film Festival

Hitler, Stalin and I
November 4, 2012, 12:00 PM
Library & Archives Canada, Room 156
395 Wellington, Ottawa

Admission:  $12 or with Festival Pass.

The life of Heda Margolius Kovály was so fraught with bad luck that it seems scripted. Born in Prague into a Jewish family, she married lawyer Rudolph Margolius, but both were soon deported to the Lódz ghetto and then to Auschwitz, where they were separated. They miraculously survived, only to fall into the hands of Stalinism. Treštíková illustrates Heda’s painful account with rare archives, giving heft to the old woman’s words. Behind the individual story looms 20th-century European history and its totalitarian regimes.

1st prize in the category of document-independent program - Czech Film and Television Academy in 2002
