The Jewish Community Relations Council (JCRC) is proud to announce the world premiere of Sweet Lorraine in Auschwitz at the 34th Heartland International Film Festival on Sunday, October 12, at 1:00 pm in the Tobias Theater at Newfields. Additional screenings will be held at the Alamo Drafthouse Theater on Thursday, October 16, at 4:45 pm and Sunday, October 19, at 12:00 pm. Tickets are available online.
In December 2023, the Indianapolis Rotary Foundation awarded a $10,000 Community Grant to the JCRC to support the final production and post-production of this important documentary. Sweet Lorraine in Auschwitz shares powerful first-hand accounts of the Holocaust, with the goal of expanding historical knowledge among Indiana students, combating antisemitism, and preserving a living history for future generations.
We encourage Rotarians and the public to attend one of these screenings and experience this moving film.
