About

GILLIAN LAUB, critically-acclaimed photographer and director, realized the need to document the testimony of survivors while we still have the chance. The Jewish experience through human history is the story of persecution and an enormous will to survive. Yet awareness of this history is at risk, especially amongst younger generations. Twenty percent of 18-29 year old Americans believe the Holocaust was a myth. Magnifying the stories of the last living survivors feels urgent at this time.

The dedicated goal of LIVE2TELL is to elevate the consciousness and spark conversation about the parallels between past and present. These narratives need to be revived using a more contemporary lens to reach new generations. The first hand stories of survivors need to continue to be shared, retold and passed down. 

Their wisdom must serve as a warning. L’dor Vador. From generation to generation. We live to tell.
