A powerful documentary about Jewish partisans during the Holocaust with incredible personal testimonies. Over 25,000 Jews escaped to the forests of Poland, Belarus, the Ukraine and Lithuania and fought the Nazis in every way they could. They blew up trains and bridges and staged armed attacks and acts of sabotage against the enemy. Many of the partisans were young men and women in their teens who demonstrated exceptional courage despite danger and loss. Through archival film footage and interviews, we have proof that during the Holocaust, Jews resisted when possible and did not simply go “like sheep to the slaughter”.
