The Survivor Review: A Powerful Film With Painful Memories

At 10 a.m. in Israel, traffic stopped. People got out of their vehicles in the street and stood, air raid sirens sounded, and the entire country paused for two minutes, an eternity in modern times. They were remembering the six million Jews killed during World War 2, and the trauma it created for generations of people internationally; the night before, a film on HBO was doing the same. The Survivor was released the night of Yom HaShoah, which lasts until the following evening, April 28 this year, and is known colloquially as Holocaust Remembrance Day.
