T
he Cis Maisel Center
for Judaic Studies
and Community
Engagement will present
Defiant Requiem, a moving
feature-length documentary
that honors the prisoners of
the Terezín concentration
camp. The screening will
be held in the Oakland
Center Banquet Rooms
(312 Meadow Brook Road,
Rochester) on Wednesday,
March 9, at 7 p.m.
The film tells the
Terezín prisoners’ stories
and combines historical
photos, animation and Nazi
propaganda footage — with
re-creations and current
footage of Prague and
Terezín. It reflects the grim
realities of one of the worst
periods in human history,
the Holocaust.
Terezin was originally a
holiday resort reserved for
Czech nobility located 30
miles north of Prague in
the Czech Republic. During
World War II, by 1940,
the Nazi Gestapo turned
it into a Jewish ghetto and
concentration camp that held
Jews from Czechoslovakia
as well as many people
deported from Germany,
Austria, the Netherlands and
Denmark. More than 150,000
people were sent to the camp
before being transported
by rail to their deaths at
Oakland University
to host documentary
about Terezin
concentration camp.
