Screening and panel co-presented by The Lost Shtetl Museum


 


DOC NYC and The Lost Shtetl Museum present the NY Premiere of Extinguished Lives (Lithuania/USA, 14 min), a hybrid documentary short examining a little-known story of the Holocaust by bullets—the murder of Lithuanian Jews by Nazis and their local collaborators in the forests surrounding hundreds of shtetls. Based on survivor testimony, the film follows a young woman who must choose between staying with her family or saving herself. 


 


Following the film, a panel moderated by DOC NYC Executive Director Raphaela Neihausen will discuss the need (or not) for Holocaust films in 2025. Panelists include Extinguished Lives director Roberta Grossman, The Lost Shtetl Museum Director of Education Dr. Jolanta Mickute, filmmaker Denis Dobrovna (The Consequences of Truth), and Exhibit Designer Büke Kumyol (RAA).

In our first-ever collaboration, DOC NYC is partnering with Creatively Speaking, a program of the New School’s Institute on Race, Power & Political Economy to present HOME OF THE BRAVE, a powerful program of five documentary shorts exploring urgent social issues shaping America today. From legal justice and life after incarceration to progressive education and compassionate healthcare, these stories of grassroot activism showcase individuals and communities working to create meaningful change. Uplifting and inspiring, the program celebrates resilience, empathy, and the transformative power of advocacy—showing how courage and collective action can light the path toward a more just and compassionate society. - Karen McMullen
