Films about the Holocaust really take a toll on me. This one, absolutely crushed me.
Being a Jew right now is an incredibly scary thing. Having to hide myself is horrifying. I believe that “history may not repeat itself, but it does rhyme.” And after October 7th, 2023, I’m reminded of the rhyme every day, and once again with this film.
There are people who are able to live freely and not have a care in the world, while there are Jews fighting for their right to simply be Jewish.
Jews are not a hashtag. 61
Jews are not something that is “trending”. This film reminds me why we need a home. We need a place to pray and sing and laugh without the fear of being murdered. Because, as history continues to tell us, Jews will continue to be hunted, and there will be people who refuse to say anything.
I’m not saying that Jews are the only one who experience struggle and pain, I’m only speaking on what I just watched, and what I continue to live day after day.
