Movies
docu,entqry: In the early morning hours of Friday, June 9, 1944, 1,750 member of the Jewish Community of Corfu were rounded up and taken to the kastro, the island’s fortress. They were all transported to Auschwitz. Only 121 would return. The film is 22 minutes long, the exact time it took for the Nazis to get the Jews from the round-up area to the docks. Through interviews with some of the survivors, we follow their little known journey.
