FUNDING GOALS

This film has been made with assistance from the National Endowment for the Humanities, the Conference on Jewish Material Claims Against Germany supported by the German Federal Ministry of Finance, Jewish Story Partners, New York State Council on the Arts, NYC Women’s Fund for Media, Music and Theatre, Karma Foundation, Memorial Foundation for Jewish Culture, and private foundations. 

On April 2, 2025, the Trump administration’s Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE),  run by Elon Musk, cancelled all NEH grants, including ours. Though on May 8th, U.S. District Judge Colleen McMahon ruled that the DOGE NEH cuts were unlawful and unconstitutional, specifically calling out our film as vital at a time of heightened antisemitism, the Trump Administration recently filed an appeal contesting restoring the grants.

As our film continues to gain momentum, winning festival awards, drawing record crowds and selling out screenings, we need your help to get it to the next level. 

We are seeking post-production and distribution funding to pay for archival and music licensing rights, support a theatrical run, as well as broadcast, streaming, educational and community screenings to combat antisemitism, violent extremism, toxic misogyny and Holocaust denial. 

All donations are tax-exempt. We are offering film producer credits depending on your level of donation. 

THE FILM’S 501(3C) FISCAL SPONSOR IS THE CENTER FOR INDEPENDENT DOCUMENTARY. ALL DONATIONS ARE TAX EXEMPT.
