520    Before World War II 35, 000 Jews lived in Kovno (now Kaunas, Lithuania.) In a story familiar throughout Europe, few escaped the Holocaust. But despite their great suffering, the courageous inmates of the Kovno ghetto risked their lives to record their fate in thousands of photographs and documents. Incredibly many of these articles surivived the war, stashed away in hiding places, buried underneath the rubble, etc. They are the most complete record of any Jewish community's experience during the Holocaust. "Kovno ghetto" pieces together the story of the Jews of Kovno from the first stirrings of war to the annihilation of the ghetto just days before the city's liberation. And for the first time, 19 survivors of Kovno - including photographer Zvi Kadushin, whose images are at the heart of Kovno's moving legacy - tell their harrowing stories of survival and loss.  Narrated and co-written by renoved historian Sir Martin Gilbert, the film is a gripping record of people who risked it all to document the most horrifying experience of their lives.
