October 12: World Premier of Sweet Lorraine in Auschwitz
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.
