a little slow at times
|
|
The Whitwell Middle School in a rural part of Tennessee is the setting for this film about educators trying to help kids grasp the concept of what the Holocaust really was. In an attempt to grasp the concept of six-million victims, which is an extraordinary number to anyone but especially kids, the students decide to collect six-million paper clips to better understand the enormity of this crime against humanity. One paperclip for each victim. The film also details how the students metand spoke to Holocaust survivors from around the world and how the experience changes them and their community for ever.
