Director/writer, Doug Shultz ; editor, Mark Fason ; music director, Murry Sidlin.Narrated by Bebe Neuwirth.In the face of horrific living conditions, Jewish inmates of Terezin concentration camp--artists, musicians, poets and writers--fought back with art and music. Led by conductor Rafael Schächter, they re-imagined a Catholic liturgical work, Verdi's Requiem, as a condemnation of the Nazis. They performed for Nazi brass, singing what they dared not say. Six decades later, a new conductor and choir take Verdi's Requiem back to Terezin to bring the story of Schachter's artistic uprising back to life.MPAA rating: Not rated ; Rating: TVPG.DVD, NTSC, region 1, widescreen; 5.1 surround.
