  • The Boys of Terezin
    The Boys of Terezin Teacher Resource Package Prepared by: Susan Starkman, B.A., M.Ed Synopsis Country of Origin: United States Director: John Sharify Runtime: 52 minutes Themes: Holocaust, overcoming adversity, healing power of art, music and literature This uplifting documentary is testament to the way that the drive for creativity cannot be stifled, even under the most challenging conditions. Risking their lives, the teenage residents of Home One, a children’s concentration camp, created a magazine called VEDEM that chronicled their daily lives through essays, poems and pictures. The last boy to remain at Terezin buried all 800 pages, retrieving the manuscript after liberation. In 2010, Music of Remembrance commissioned Vedem, an oratorio based on the boys’ experiences, to be performed by the Seattle Boychoir. Included in this group, is Toronto’s George Brady, familiar to many as the brother of Hana Brady (Hana’s Suitcase). Curriculum Links The Boys of Terezin can be used to meet the requirements of the Media Studies component of English, Grades 7-12. It can also be used to meet the requirements of Grade 10 History (CHC2D), Grade 12 World History: The West and the World (CHY4U), and Grade 12 Adventures in World History (CHM4E).
