Getting Away with Murder(s)

A documentary. Almost 1 million people in 22 countries carried out the unprovoked murder of 11 million innocent men, women and children. 99% of those responsible were never prosecuted; most were never even questioned. Despite the extensive cinema documentary coverage of the Holocaust to date, not one has explored in any depth the almost total lack of justice, statistically, towards the vast numbers of eagerly participating perpetrators who, at war's end, simply walked away -- untouched by justice. This film addresses this glaring omission.

804 - South Africans Volunteer in Israel's War of Independence

A documentary about the South African volunteers who fought in Israel's War of Independence in 1948. Told mostly through interviews with the surviving South African Machalniks, this is a unique firsthand account of a widely overlooked group's essential contribution to Israel's early survival. Many of the stories conveyed here have never before been printed, recorded or circulated. These intimate personal testimonies feature within a broader historical narrative of the time, incorporating interviews withe leading scholars of Jewish history such as professor Milton Shain and Sir Martin Gilbert.
