     September 24, 2019
     1:30 pm - 4:00 pm

In 1939 and 1940 Nazi tyranny was widely written about in print media but the real “social media” of the time was the movies. View an award-winning film to see what moviegoers saw, knew, and understood about Nazi activity in Europe and the U.S. “Mortal Storm” was released in June 1940 just before the surrender of France to the Nazis. The story begins on June 30, 1933 the day Hitler comes to power and follows a family with divided allegiances through the rapid rise of Nazi power. The events of 1933, the laws regarding racial purity, and the restrictions on speech and opposition are shown as they impact the factions within the family. Following the film, local HERC educators, Linda Davey and Pete Cowdrey will answer questions and lead a discussion. If you would like to enjoy lunch in the Red Hills Retirement Resort dining room before the film, call 850-629-0451 for reservations. The cost for lunch is $8.00 to be paid at Red Hills.
