 or 'Movie Screening of This Ordinary Thing by Al Tapper'About the EventHau
 nting and unforgettable\, THIS ORDINARY THING tells the story of non-Jews 
 who helped save Jewish people across Europe during The Holocaust. The film
  combines never-before-seen archival footage with the testimonies of over 
 forty different people who\, working independently and at great risk to th
 emselves and their families\, saved thousands of Jewish strangers from alm
 ost certain death. Narrated by an all-star cast\, including Helen Mirren 
 and Jeremy Irons\, the film is a timely reminder of the pockets of goodne
 ss that can rise in a sea of evil: everyday people helping others who were
  "different" from them.Notably\, none of the people featured in the film t
 hought of themselves as heroes. And yet the film\, with immense contempora
 ry resonance\, causes each of us to ask ourselves “What would I have don
 e?”About the SpeakersWith a growing list of accolades and credits achiev
