WTTW, in cooperation with the Illinois Holocaust Museum & Education Center, presents a free screening and discussion of the new documentary Eva: A-7063, the incredible true story of Auschwitz survivor Eva Mozes Kor. From age 10, she and her sister Miriam fought to stay alive in the concentration camp while being subjected to Mengele’s infamous experiments on twins, and this film traces Eva’s journey to forgiveness, healing, and empowerment. Narrated by Ed Asner, the documentary serves as a tool for discussing difficult history, discovering shared values, and encouraging peace and kindness.

Immediately after the screening, award-winning filmmaker Ted Green and Dr. Alex Kor, Eva’s son, will discuss Eva’s remarkable story and the making of this documentary.

Light refreshments will be served at 6:00 pm prior to the screening, which begins at 6:30. Free parking is available.

The Museum will be open to guests before the screening; feel free to visit the Museum’s new exhibition, Purchased Lives: The American Slave Trade from 1808-1865.
