Rebuilt from Broken Glass, created by Larry Hanover, is a documentary film about a Holocaust survivor that explores the idea that even in very dark times there is light at the end. Many families were separated during the Holocaust as they were displaced and were murdered because they were Jewish. This film directly opposes the goals of the Holocaust as Hanover presents a shining story that focuses on the reunion of two Jewish friends. Through the music of what seems to be flute and piano and the captivating Fred Behrend, this story juggles the tones of lightheartedness and darkness. The message of the film is all about the now, the future, and the love that is shared along the way.
