Getting Away with Murder(s) + Q&A
Discover the profound and distressing untold story of the Holocaust when a screening of the documentary Getting Away With Murder(s) is shown at GFT, followed by a Q&A with director David Wilkinson.
About Getting Away with Murder(s) + Q&A
During the Holocaust almost 1 million people in 22 countries carried out the unprovoked murder of 11 million innocent men, women and children. 99% of those responsible were never prosecuted; most were never even questioned.
The Allies knew what their crime was and where these people could be found: Germany, Austria, Italy, the UK, the USA, Canada, Australia and numerous countries in South America. However, after the late 1940s almost nothing was done.
Director David Wilkinson asks the question: why were so many people actively permitted to get away with their crime(s), that of mass murder on an industrial scale? Wilkinson’s journey takes him all over the UK, to Ireland, the USA, the killing fields of Lithuania, Latvia and the Czech Republic, to the infamous death camp Auschwitz-Birkenau in Poland, to Austria, France and, of course, Germany.
This screening will be followed by a Q&A with director David Wilkinson.
