Safe Haven: The Warsaw Zoo Gary & Richard Lester
Tomer
It was very nice to see people who weren't Jewish that were brave enough to help us, the Jewish people even if it could cost them their lives.

I think it was very good that showed compassionate people who weren't Jewish helped to hide the Jewish people from the Nazis and they took a big risk.
In conclusion we both feel the movie was touching and powerful, we are honored you have included our teacher in the credits.
To Gary and Richard Lester, the producers of the movie,
Your movie helped me to know many new things. I would never guess Jewish people hid in the Warsaw Zoo, and Christian citizens helped some of the other Jews.
The citizens, Polish and Jewish as one were tortured by the German soldiers.
In the ghettoes they starved for bread and died from Typhus and other bad diseases. Your movie is strong evidence that despite all of the evil, there were ordinary people who cared; you deserve a lot of credit for this work.

I really was impressed from the movie.
The sounds were very strong, powerful.
I was very excited from the movie, from the bombs, the war, from the deaths.
There were deaths, dead people, bodies, and poor hungry people, hungry babies; they were so thin, just ready to die, to go forever.
When I heard of the Poles soldiers who fought the German soldiers, I suddenly remembered the story of Massada, of the Jewish soldiers that died, one after another, and the Romans killed them all.
But, they still fought, and were heroes.
We are very proud about Marsha because she helped us to understand the Holocaust by teaching about her Mother Sonia Frenkel (God rest her soul and by teaching us about Safe Haven and the Warsaw Zoo). May God bless you both. Eiron S.
The movie was interesting and we didn't believe that people hid in a zoo in order to spare their life from the Nazis. People that are not Jewish endangered their life for Jewish people. Moshe Tirosh's story was very interesting and exciting. We can't describe what people had in the holocaust and we remember them and what they endured.
We are proud of Marsha because she was in the credits of the movie and she invests in the project.
