Hazel and Gus are two extraordinary teenagers struggling with cancer who bond over their refusal to let their illness define them.  Based on the acclaimed novel by John Green, The Fault in Our Stars, is a touching yet tragic love story starring Shailene Woodley and Ansel Elgort.

Instead of surviving high school, Hazel battles cancer with a shy confidence, courage and humor.  She is determined to live life in the moment, despite the tubes under nose or the oxygen tank tethered to her side. 

Reluctantly, Hazel attends a cancer patients’ support group and catches the eye of a teenage boy, Gus, an ex-basketball player, cancer survivor and amputee.  Atypical teenagers, Gus and Hazel share a quest to live an extraordinary life and fall in love through their journey making life with cancer worth living.

Kinderblock 66: Return to Buchenwald In Honor of Holocaust Remembrance Day April 27


A Story of Survival 

Digiplex Theaters April 27 & 30

In Honor of Holocaust Remembrance Day on April 27 

On April 11, 1945, Buchenwald was liberated. Nearly 1,000 boys survived. Sixty-five years later, on April 11, 2010 several of the surviving boys from block 66 returned to Weimer and to Buchenwald.  “Kinderblock 66: Return to Buchenwald” is their story.  This profoundly moving film provides a powerful look into the harrowing experiences and the lives of the Holocaust survivors from a children’s barrack, Block 66, at the notorious Buchenwald concentration camp. 

The Buchenwald concentration camp in Germany was a Nazi slave labor camp where thousands of Jews were killed, many more were also sent to Auschwitz to die.  A large growing number of teenage European Jewish boys were being transferred to Buchenwald.  

The German Communist-led underground there made a conscious decision to protect them.  The youths did not work and were cared for and protected by the block leaders, Antonin Kalina, a Czech Communist and his deputy, Gustav Schiller, a Polish Jew.   The leaders strove until the last days of the war to keep the boys from danger...seeing in them the hope for the future.  On April 11, 1945, Buchenwald was liberated. Nearly 1000 boys survived.
Survivor Pavel Kohn in Kinderblock 66: Return to Buchenwald

Sixty-five years later, four of the surviving boys journey to reunite at Buchenwald to tell their story for a commemoration of the liberation of the camp by Allied forces.  Kinderblock 66: Return to Buchenwald depicts their survival in a riveting story of good triumphing over evil.

This is the story of Naftali-Duro Furst from Czechoslovakia, Pavel Kohn of Prague, Israel-Laszio Lazar of Romania and Alex Moskovic of Czechoslovakia.  Four boys desperate to live....they survived as boys and came back as men to tell their story.  Kinderblock 66: Return to Buchenwald is a DigiNext exclusive only at Digiplex Theaters on April 27 & 30.
