Berlin - Paris, Die Geschichte der Beate Klarsfeld

A Documentary film. Brunhilde Pomsel always described herself as just being a side-line figure and not at all interested in politics. Aged 105, Pomsel used to work as secretary, stenographer and typist for the Nazi Propaganda Minister Joseph Goebbels. Pomsel’s life mirrors the major historical ruptures of the 20th century and German life thereafter. The film forces viewers to ask themselves what they would have done and whether they would have sacrificed any possible moral principles in order to advance their own careers.

Honorable Mr. Morgenthau

A documentary. The documentary is about the United States of America's immigration policy during the Holocaust. Throughout most of the 1930s and World War II, the United States government deliberately kept the influx of European Jews to America well below America’s official immigration quota for that part of the world. This policy, rooted in a variety of political concerns, as well as frequently transparent anti-Semitism left millions with no haven from the Nazi terror, and emboldened Hitler to transition from a policy of Jewish emigration to extermination.
