The film THE LESSONS OF SURVIVAL. CONVERSATIONS WITH SIMON WIESENTHAL was released at the end of 2013, and was successfully shown at important European public events. Its European premiere was at the European Parliament in January 2014 commemorating the International Holocaust and Remembrance Day. In March 2014, the film was shown at a special screening and discussion event at the Lithuanian Seimas (parliament).
In April 2014, The Israeli National News, in a profile written by Rochel Sylvetsky, described the film in the following way:
“Inna Rogatchi’s new film Lessons of Survival is the riveting film documentary on her never-before publicized conversations with the larger-than-life Nazi hunter as well as her own research into fascinating stories and facts about the Holocaust. Inna Rogatchi, too, is larger-than-life, and the noble role filled by the Rogatchi family in so many spheres is an example that is difficult to emulate”.

Sincerely,
Žilvinas Beliauskas
