Rendezvous at Erasmus

A documentary and an animation film: An amazing story was discovered in the archives of a Jewish community in Holland: two German soldiers, Johannes Gerhardt and Werner Klemke, were responsible for the survival of a great part of the community during WWII. Along with Van Perlstein and Van Gelder. Gerhardt sadly fell in battle in 1944, but Werner Klemke returned to East Berlin, in the former GDR and made a career as a world famous illustrator – with a little help of his Dutch resistance friends
