UNDERSTANDING HOLOCAUST
FILMS ABOUT HOLOCAUST IN EUROP 1933- 1945
Nazism, the raise of Racism Genocides, Millions of Jews, Christians,
Gypsies and Handicapped cause to 2nd world war
European holocaust 1933- 45 was the blackest period in the history in
the world. Adolph Hitler raised racism in the name of Nazism which
initiated the genocide of Jews, Christians, Gypsies and disabled in
the name of establishing pure blood race in Germany, Poland and
Sweden. It is very relevant to rethink the holocaust again in the
Indian context. The fundamentalist tendencies in India are very much a
similar to Nazism leading to genocides in India. We had witnessed the
signs of the same in Gujarat, Orissa and the moral policing in
Mangalore and Bangalore. In this context, we need to sensitize people
about the wretchedness of pureblood argument and its action. So Sight
& Sound communication resource is promoting these films for the
understanding about the wretchedness behind racism.
These films are shot by U.S and U.S.S.R army documentary wing at the
time of holocaust in black and white. Later few film makers added
shots with color and sound. At present we are distributing these films
for the people. There are nine films of holocaust and there are twenty
other shot films on introduction and understanding on holocaust,
including a clipping from Great Dictator Sound communication resource.

kind of protection are we giving to our food producers? Govt of India is

the debt trap and committing suicide.

hundreds of Dalits have been exploited and sometimes even killed for land.

Livelihood” showcases how land including panchami land and bhoodan land, is
still being grabbed from the Dalits by the upper caste/class people.

farmers. Other case studies included in the film talk about the highly
controversial SEZ act 2005, issues of land privatization, land acquisition and
people’s resistance to defend the livelihood as their rights.

struggle and finally their resistance. The film concludes with Medha Patkar’s
message “Either in jail or out on the road……… only the people will get the
message..
