CLC to show Holocaust film

"Refuge," a film that provides eyewitness testimonies and explores the character and resiliency of the last generation of victims of Nazi persecution, will be shown for free at 6:30 p.m. Monday, April 25, at the College of Lake County. It will be presented by CLC in honor of Holocaust Remembrance Day. A panel discussion featuring the filmmaker, Ethan Bensinger, and other experts will follow the free showing in Room C005 (C Wing Auditorium) at the Grayslake campus, 19351 W. Washington St. Shaped by the trauma of his family's experience of being uprooted from Germany in the years preceding the Holocaust, Bensinger created a film that tells the stories of Selfhelp Home residents who share a history of separation and loss and their rebirth in America.
