Forgiving Dr. Mengele
(DVD)

A film by Bob Hercules and Cheri Pugh.

Eva Mozes Kor.

(Producer) Tells the story of a shocking act of forgiveness by Auschwitz survivor Eva Mozes Kor and the firestorm of criticism it has provoked. Eva and her twin sister, Miriam, were victims of Nazi doctor Josef Mengele's cruel genetic experiments -- an experience that would haunt them their entire lives. We follow Eva's metamorphosis from embittered survivor to tireless advocate for reconciliation. This unexpected transformation was sparked when Eva, in an attempt to get information about the experiments, met with another former Auschwitz doctor. Eva's ideas about justice, revenge and the possibility of healing through forgiveness -- as well as the passionate opposition from other survivors -- become a window to a larger discussion of the many ways people define forgiveness.
