As Seen Through These Eyes

Directed by Hilary Helstein

USA | 70 minutes | 2008

As Maya Angelou narrates this powerful documentary, she reveals the story of a brave group of people who fought Hitler with the only weapons they had: charcoal, pencil stubs, shreds of paper, and memories etched in their minds. These artists took their fate into their own hands to make a compelling statement about the human spirit, enduring against unimaginable odds. It features Simon Wiesenthal, the children of Terezin, and Dina Gottliebova Babbitt, personal artist to Dr. Mengele.
