Heather Dune Macadam, US 2023, 90 Min
In 1942 the first women were deported to Auschwitz. They were 999 Jewish women from Slovakia. Employing a mixture of drawings created in the camp, film scenes, photographs, archive recordings and interviews with contemporary witnesses, this documentary evolves into a chronicle of the mass murder in Auschwitz - narrated from a female perspective.

GENERATION 1.5
Roman Shumunov, IL 2023, 80 min
Almost a million people from the former Soviet Union immigrated to Israel in the 1990s. A shocking experience, especially as a child. Growing up between Russian-speaking parents and a society that was at least ambivalent towards the new arrivals, the children from back then shed light on an important part of Israeli immigration history.

Alexander House
The Alexander Haus e.V. was founded in 2013 by local residents of Groß Glienicke and members of the Alexander family. The goal is to develop the Alexander House into a place for education and reconciliation. The original summer house is to be restored and the property further developed so that it can be used for a diverse and rich program in the areas of education and reconciliation. To this end, the association is working with many local people, associations, German and international partners, supported by local, state and federal authorities as well as international organizations and foundations.
