Congregation Beth Hamedrosh presents an award winning documentary film, The Last Survivor. 

The film examines four journeys through genocide: The Holocaust, Rwanda, Darfur and Congo. The film presents the survivors and their struggle by working to educate and motivate a civic response to mass atrocity. This is a unique opportunity to learn from our mistakes and act collectively in the face of similar issues today.
