Film - "Killing Kasztner" - The film features the director and her search for the truth about Rezno Kasztner.

Though Kasztner's reputation as a controversial figure-whether it is as a hero or traitor-is well known in Israel, he is virtually unknown in the United States. Kasztner was a Jew in Hungary whose negotiations with the Nazis during World War II resulted in the rescue of 1,700 Jews. And perhaps tens of thousands more Jews were saved from the gas chambers because of his negotiation. After Kasztner moved to Israel, in the 1950s, he was accused of being a collaborator and fought a vicious libel battle in a trial that condemned him as, "the man who sold his soul to the Devil." He was subsequently murdered in 1957 in Tel Aviv.
Speaker will follow the film.
