Survivor<\/em>, based on the memoir by Ivor Perl BEM, will be free to view on YouTube and ChaiFlicks on January 27 in honor of Holocaust Remembrance Day.<\/p>\n The story follows 12-year-old Perl from a small town in Hungary to the gates of Auschwitz, Kaufering, Allach and Dachau, witnessing the horrors of the Holocaust and the unbreakable bond between two brothers and their miraculous survival.<\/p>\n A 30-minute interview with the animator, Zoom Rockman, will also be made available for those wanting a deeper dive into the making of this beautifully crafted movie.<\/p>\n \u201cWhen I read Ivor\u2019s story, I immediately began to visualize it as a film\u2014one I could bring to life through my paper puppet animation to create something both powerful and accessible, especially for audiences who might not otherwise engage with this vital subject matter,\u201d said Rockman. \u201cI deliberately chose to tell Ivor\u2019s story in a Gen Z\u2013inspired style to ensure what happened remains present in the memory of rising generations.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cThis is a profoundly moving and important film that we are honored to share with the world on such a meaningful day,\u201d said Neil Friedman, CEO of ChaiFlicks. \u201cStories like Survivor<\/em> must be seen, remembered, and passed on to as many people as possible.
