I recently saw the movie The Boy in the Stripped Pajamas and it was by far a movie that all must see. It was about a boy whose father was a Nazi and they moved near a concentration camp. The boy being an explorer that he was decided to search the grounds and soon found the camp. Not knowing what it was he would play with a boy behind the barbed wire and give him food and no one ever found out. They soon became very close and boy ended up digging a hole under the wire. I will not spoil the ending but it is a movie that moved many people. It helps keep the memory alive about what happened those horrific years. Some choose to forget and others just call it the past, what is done is done.
The holocaust is a time in history that needs to be remembered for the mistake that was made, for no one speaking out against it and for the millions that died. People still live with it day by day having first hand experience. History is told to repeat itself. Not keeping the memory alive is as if we are letting it happen again and no one wants that.
