Eva’s Promise: Film Screening and Talkback Presented by HHREC and JCC Mid-Westchester

A screening of the film Eva’s Promise hosted by JCC Mid-Westchester will be followed by a conversation with Producer Susan Kerner, Director Steve McCarthy, and HHREC Director of Education Steve Goldberg. This moving documentary tells the story of Eva Schloss, who, on a train to Auschwitz, made a promise to her seventeen-year-old brother Heinz—to retrieve the paintings and poetry he had hidden under the attic floorboards before their capture. After the war, Eva’s mother married Otto Frank, Anne Frank’s father, intertwining their family stories.
