*From:* [email protected] <[email protected]> *Sent:* 21 April 2019 *Subject:* Unique Holocaust documentary - Kindly reply Dear friends and colleagues, Kindly let me know if you would be willing to share news about our new documentary, *The Presence of Their Absence*, on your Facebook pages, in your newsletters, or directly with your students and followers. I believe it generates strong discussion on the new oral tradition of adult children of Holocaust survivors. Few of their stories have ever been told. It’s an honor for me to be at the forefront of this story tradition that belongs uniquely to them. *The Presence of Their Absence* follows a son of survivors on a journey to trace his inherited trauma. Armed with only scant clues from his late parents, Fred Zaidman ventures into the unknown to tell his story for this first time. With helpers in Poland, Israel, Germany, and an unlikely source – a Baptist minister in Atlanta who guides us through a cemetery in Poland - Fred finds his roots in the ashes of the Shoah, unshackles his pain and reconstructs his future. Yad Vashem has called The Presence of Their Absence “a film for the ages”. We are delighted it has just come to Digital HD on iTunes and your other platforms: https://itunes.apple.com/us/movie/the-presence-of-their-absence/id1449946652 https://www.amazon.com/Presence-Their-Absence-Fred-Zaidman/dp/B07P1C57FL. You may also order a DVD on our website: https://thepresenceoftheirabsence.com/ and for a scholastic version for projecting onto large screens: http://logtv.com/storefront/product/the-presence-of-their-absence/. I am attaching the press release from our distributor, Virgil Films Entertainment, as well. We are available for interviews about the genesis of the project. Although we are in Los Angeles, director Donna Kanter and film subject Fred Zaidman would be available to join you for a screening and discussion with attendees. We plan to bring the film east and abroad (Italy, Poland, Germany, Israel) in August, to New York and the Northeast in the Fall, and to the South in November. Feel free to contact me at my email address or phone numbers also listed below. With gratitude, Chag Pesach sameach, and a joyous Easter. Donna Kanter and team The Kanter Company, Inc.
