The Boy in the Woods

On September 22, the Center for Jewish History hosted a remarkable screening of The Boy in the Woods, followed by a panel discussion with writer and director Rebecca Snow, lead actor Richard Armitage, and Holocaust survivor Maxwell Smart, whose memoir inspired the film. The discussion was moderated by Annette Insdorf. Presented in partnership with the Claims Conference, the event offered a powerful exploration of history, storytelling, and survival.
