"Across the Water" tells the story of a Copenhaghen Jewish family’s escape from the facists in 1943. Based on true events, the film was directed by Nicolo Dorato, whose grandfather was among the courageous Danish fishermen to ferry war refugees to safety.

The Ambassador of Israel, Mr. Nadav Eshcar, shares a message at the event: “The Holocaust is the one occasion in which contempt of this divine and moral decree had reached its inconceivable low. We are gathered here today to remember all those Millions of Human Beings who were led in monstrous efficiency to their deaths, for being different, or more accurately: defined as different.”
