“A groundbreaking portrayal of the trauma and burden imposed on the children of Holocaust survivors. Teenager David Whitelaw was a force of nature that inspired his government to seek justice for the unspeakable crimes unleashed against innocent people.”

“The Fierce forces us to ask ourselves if we’d have the courage and fearlessness to seek justice regardless of the personal consequences. It’s hard to fathom that a teenager was able to demand and help secure justice for the savage murders of so many. Truly one of the most heart wrenching, yet inspiring family stories of the 20th Century.”
