Documentary filmmaker Howard Zuckerman focuses on a neglected but important aspect of the Holocaust —the way various countries have depicted and distorted the methodical mass murder of a people. Post-war German amnesia, Austrian efforts at ignoring its role in the Jewish Genocide, and previous French obliviousness to its own Nazi collaboration are explored. Additionally, the film explores how America, Holland, Russia, Poland, Switzerland, France, Germany, and Austria have presented the Holocaust and World War II in education, mass media and the arts. American artists George Segal and Judy Chicago, along with several German and Austrian artists, are interviewed and their works are explored. An indispensable historical and educational tool in helping understand the Holocaust and its aftermath.
