Laemmle's List

In this fascinating documentary, artist and educator Deborah Blum embarks on a deeply personal journey to uncover the hidden heroism of her great-grandfather’s first cousin, Carl Laemmle, a Hollywood trailblazer and one of Universal Studios founding figures. A largely unsung hero, Laemmle used his influence to save Jews from Nazi Germany, yet his courageous efforts remain scarcely acknowledged by Hollywood today.
