14 November 1938: German schools close for Jewish children
Adolf Goebbels
Published on Oct 11, 2023
On 14 November 1938 -- shortly after the pogroms organized by the Nazi party the night of 9 November -- the German authorities ban Jewish children to attend the schools. Our short film shows previously unreleased film material of Berlin and Jewish students of a Berlin high school, which have been filmed in 1937 by the American film director Julien Bryan.
In 1938 the official plans for the final deprivation of rights and for the expulsion of the German Jews are elaborated. Only a few Jewish citizens are able to escape from Germany. Less than 30,000 make it until the summer of 1939 to New York.
The collection of outtakes from the 35mm footage of Julien Bryan and other film producers scanned by Framepool in the HD format already includes a number of hours and will be further expanded. All footage can be licensed online for all uses.
