Screening of Shoah – Holocaust Remembrance Day at Maria Magdalena

Join us on Holocaust Remembrance Day for a special screening of Shoah at Maria Magdalena Parish Hall and Church in Stockholm. The screening will be accompanied by a conversation on reconciliation with writer Elisabeth Åsbrink and a representative of the Church of Sweden.

More than forty years ago, Claude Lanzmann’s monumental documentary Shoah had its world premiere. Over the course of nine and a half hours, the film brings us face to face with survivors, perpetrators, and bystanders who witnessed one of the most horrific crimes against humanity in modern history.

Shoah premiered in Sweden in 1986. Four decades later, the film returns to Swedish audiences thanks to Folkets Bio, which has acquired the screening rights in collaboration with the Robert Weil Family Foundation and the Swedish Holocaust Museum.
