Every Jewish child is an entire world — our nation’s promise for the future.
But what happens when an entire generation of children is wiped out?
Who bears witness to the shattered promises buried beneath blood-soaked soil?
This Tisha B’av, join Rabbi Shlomo Bochner on a deeply personal mission filmed on location across Lithuania.
Accompanied by world-renowned historian tour guide Yehuda Geberer.
Journey through the forests of Ponar, where the gunshots and cries echoed for days.
Step into a decrepit apartment in the Kovno Ghetto, where parents clung to faith as they faced the unthinkable.
Walk the infamous road of death leading to the Ninth Fort, where thousands of precious, tiny children took their final steps.
Visit the resting place of the Ger Tzedek of Vilna, Avraham ben Avraham.
Discover the eternal promise whose light was nearly extinguished – yet still burns bright today.
Al ele ani bochiya – we mourn our tremendous loss. Yet in every Jewish child who carries their legacy forward, in every neshama brought back to Klal Yisroel –– that is where we find our comfort.
Film goes Live August 2, 2025 – 9 Av
