Wonderful film on survival of partisans
steveroni-3014012 February 2023
Warning: Spoilers
Tremendous story of Jewish partisans surviving four winters in forests of Eastern Europe fighting Nazis.

Each partisan story is interspersed with footage and photographs bringing the words to the screen.

Julia Mintz accurately and passionately weaves the stories into a beautiful film touching on the psychological stress, and incredible stories of survivors under the harshest conditions imaginable.

Highly recommended for all high school and above audiences.

The stories create everlasting memories not just for the storytellers, but for all humanity that should never forget the atrocities of Nazi Germany.

Phenomenal story of unthinkable courage, authenticity, raw humanity
mgrossman9331 March 2024
Julia Mintz's film is an international treasure. Jews caught in the Nazi onslaught find a way to escape and turn their deep losses into unimaginable courage, persistence, and an unbending will to defeat evil. Hearing directly from this unlikely jewish resistance force of their toughest moments, their most profound losses, and their proudest moments of ingenuity, determination and luck, these forceful fighters show us what miracles look like. This film gives us the privilege of listening and learning first hand from these witnesses (and survivors) of the Nazi regime's horrific actions. We see the best and the worst of humanity at play in this film.
