Today we went to the
My friend and I felt an indescribable guilt during the movies because they showed the rising of Hitler and with him the persecution of Jews. One documentation was about refugees and their personal stories and it was this documentation that touched us the most. To hear about their experiences and struggles during this time made us retrieve the past of our country.

Behind the Dark Side There is a Hope
By Mio (Jiamin) Liu from Grey wall, dark lights, that is such a heavy environment, lead us to their world, a world without hope…
Its dark, it’s cold and dirty. They are suffering and dying while others are relaxed and drinking coffee…
“What is a Jew? Why am I a Jew?
“Because you born that way”
“So they kill my papa and mama?”
Yes? Or no?
How can you answer such a question to a kid? A 10 years old kid! Only 10 years old!! But why? They didn’t do anything wrong, they are not something useless, not someone worthless, so why are they going to die? Why are they being disrespectful even when they already dead?
Maybe there’s not even an answer. Killing happens everywhere, in every century. We felt unbelievable, we felt unreasonable, and we felt sorry. People always hurt each other, sometimes purposely sometimes not. However, that is just history; we cannot hide as well as change it. But we can remember it, remember the painful our brother and sister had, remember the mistake we made, and remember the reason why people got crazy, and then protect ourselves, protect everyone we love, stop the bullying, stop the discrimination, stop the killing. Teach everyone how hard people had tried to survive, how valuable our lives are. If there is no hope, so let’s just create one.
