04/05/2021 A very moving and powerful documentary that is both an emotional journey and a physical one. Has amazing personal accounts and archival footage that is really emotional. The statistics of people being sent to their deaths is staggering. The resistance accounts are heroic. It's an impactful movie and timely because of all the hate that has been cultivated for political in America and beyond. The riders are so easy to love and relate to. I cried with them.

See more 01/28/2021 A beautiful, personal look into a tragic event. Well told, engaging documentary with unique insight. Certainly recommend. See more 03/29/2019 Highly contemplative and well-executed doc revolving around the 2015 Maccabiah Games, apparently referred to in more common vernacular as the "Jewish Olympics," and held where we commonly see footage of Jesse Owens' dominating in Berlin as Hitler sulked in hate-driven disgust. This film is not relegated to mere celebration, however, as the Maccabiah Games, we learn, have arisen from a continued modern-day emergence of the same hate that gave us Hitler. Extremely well-conceived - it's sombering and triumphant - this is a modern historical doc that can't be missed, as it spotlights the dark forces at work within the human condition, and provides a persevering means by which to defeat them.
