UnBroken

Beth Lane's Unbroken is a powerful and deeply moving tribute to her mother and to the unyielding strength of her family. Far more than a tale of survival, the film is a testament to love, courage, and the enduring bonds that sustain us through history's darkest chapters. With grace and emotional depth, Beth Lane weaves a narrative that honors her family's unwavering commitment to one another and their determination to embrace life fully, even in the face of incredible adversity. Beautifully crafted and profoundly human, Unbroken speaks to audiences of all ages, offering inspiration and connection across generations.

The first night, after Beth Lane's documentary, I could not stop crying - although I'm not exactly sure why. But the film was so incredibly beautiful!! And Beth is such a warm and amazing soul. The experience of seeing the film and meeting Beth (who took one look at me and said, "This woman needs a hug!" and then grabbed me into her arms and rocked me as I cried - I just cannot explain it, but I will never ever forget it!) And I will say, it is the first time I have ever seen a film involving the Holocaust and was not depressed throughout. These survivors created such hope - it was amazing. (I was crying, but I was definitely not depressed.) I hope that the whole world has the chance to see this film full of hope and humanity. Or at least all of my family and friends!!!!

The story of the Weber family is quite incredible and will show you about determination and grit of these young children surviving in a war torn Germany. Wonderfully told by the daughter of one of the 7. Beth was able capture interviews with her aunts as well as go on a journey in Germany to see and speak to folks about the locations and other findings which I will leave out of my review as to to ruin her storytelling. It is a must watch story and an important one for us all to see.

I had the pleasure of watching this on the big screen and had Beth Lane as a guest speaker after the documentary was concluded.

I finally had the opportunity to sit and watch this entire film. What an incredible legacy you've given your family and the importance of their story (your story and those that follow!) never being forgotten. Honestly I can barely think or breathe right now. It is such a horrifying / beautiful / heartbreaking / and yet supremely brave and loving story. A brilliant tribute to your family and, of course, the importance of these stories never being forgotten.

I have seen zillions of film from this time period but never have I followed the story of seven siblings in this way.

YOU, created something so AMAZING.
