Part of “Begin the Conversation,” a series of thought-provoking events designed to spark discussions and community dialogue. Presented by Cleveland Jewish News.
A special screening of the documentary Defiant Requiem, directed by Doug Schultz. The film tells the story of the Nazi concentration camp Terezin, where, led by imprisoned conductor Rafael Schächter, the inmates gained access to Verdi's Requiem Mass. After learning it from memory, they performed it for their German imprisoners as an act of defiance. An 80-piece choir and orchestra will perform Dies Irae from Requiem at the close of the film.
