DESCRIPTION:The Jewish Partisan Educational Foundation (JPEF) and Taube Philanthropies

 from a screenplay by Paul Brinkman and Jon Avnet about resistance in the 
 Warsaw Ghetto. Starring Hank Azaria, David Schwimmer, and Jon Voight, this 
 event, free and open to the general public takes place on Sunday, November

 conversation and Q&A following the film will take place with filmmaker Jon

 Berenbaum (author, who served as director of the U.S. Holocaust Research
