In 1943 Herbert and Lotte Strauss made the courageous decision to escape from Germany and almost certain extermination in a Nazi concentration camp. This is a personal account of their dramatic flight, building a new life in the United States, and coming to terms with the Holocaust. "We Were German Jews" grapples with the torment of living with the legacy of the Holocaust. The film chronicles Herbert and Lotte Strauss' return visit to Germany. They were not trying to assuage any sense of guilt over having survived; they wanted to confront the past by going back to where they had lived before the onslaught that claimed most of their relatives. This understated, very personal story adds significantly to the body of evidence that explores human behavior in the face of genocide and insists that we remember the past and learn from it.

Common Things to Look
Out For:
While Reddit can be a great source of information about shows and movies, it's important to be careful which subreddits you view. Some subreddits pertaining to streaming, particularly free streaming, can be dangerous as they may contain links to illegal streaming sites and services. These sites should be avoided as they are often not authorized to distribute the content and may also infect your device with malware or viruses. If something looks too good to be true, it probably is, so stick to Reddits that discuss legitimate, legal sources only.
