Heroes of Salonika

A moving and monumental film that sheds light on the practically unknown destruction that befell Jews in the Greek city of Thessaloniki during the Holocaust. The last survivors of the Salonica community from the Auschwitz extermination camp look straight into the camera and tell the story of the largest Jewish Sephardic – exiles from Spain – community in the Balkans simply and candidly.
