See the U.S. premiere of Reckonings, an illuminating documentary about a crucial time after the Holocaust. Reckonings aptly documents and analyzes how delegations from Israel, the Claims Conference, and Germany struggled to solve the impossible in the face of seemingly insurmountable obstacles: Material reparations for the unspeakable crimes committed by Nazi Germany against European Jews.
After the screening, a panel of experts and the filmmaker will discuss the historical implications of the first reparations after the Holocaust and explore why this negotiation for compensation is still relevant today, seventy years later, in the quest to combat antisemitism. Panelists included the film's director, a Holocaust scholar and a Holocaust survivor.
