"You're free. Go home" Most Holocaust films end with these words, the very words that survivors heard at liberation. After Auschwitz begins with these words, inviting audiences to experience what happened next. For survivors, liberation from the camps was the beginning of a life long struggle. They wanted to go home, but there was no home left in Europe. They came to America and wanted to tell people about their pasts but were silenced for over three decades. "You're in America now, put it behind you". After Auschwitz is a "Post-Holocaust" documentary that captures what it means to survive and try to life a normal life after unspeakable tragedy. Six extraordinary women who all survived Auschwitz take us on a journey that American audiences have never seen before. These women all moved to Los Angeles, married, raised children and became "Americans" but they never truly found a place to call home. What makes the story so much more fascinating is how these women saw, interpreted and ...
After Auschwitz (2017) Reviews
Great Documentary
Amazing story about what it means to "go home," after war. This documentary follows the lives of six extraordinary women and what it meant for them to be liberated from Auschwitz. Traditionally we celebrate liberation as a victory, but this film makes you think about what that liberation meant to women who had no money, no homes and few or no relatives to go home to after having just survived the trauma of Auschwitz. As much about the Holocaust as it is about the challenges of returning to society from war and severe trauma, this movie is very timely as we welcome back veterans from the Gulf War. A must see movie.
Excellent, Powerful, Documentary
Giving a new perspective on what it means to be a survivor, this film begins at the end of World War II. The six women featured are strong as hell and delightfully hopeful given the circumstances they have lived through.
An extremely moving look at the lives of Holocaust survivors
After Auschwitz is an outstanding look at what happened after the Holocaust for 6 women who survived it. The immediate aftermath is shocking, but watching these women set out to rebuild their lives is a fascinating experience. It's an inspiring look at dealing with horror, but more than that, it's about strength. This is an element of the Holocaust that hasn't been explored much on film, and in this day and age, these stories remain incredibly relevant.
Don't Miss This Wonderful Documentary
Unlike most documentaries that deal with the Holocaust, "After Auschwitz" is hopeful, uplifting and life-affirming. At its core, this film showcases the resilience of the human soul and the ability of people to emerge from the darkest of circumstances to find hope, love and happiness. A must-see!
