“Had it not been for Hitler, I would have been born a German-Jewish child, more German than Jewish, in a small village in the South of Germany.” – Jeanine Meerapfel
On June 16, 2025, LBI will screen Im Land Meiner Eltern (In the Country of My Parents) a documentary by acclaimed German-Argentine director Jeanine Meerapfel. In this deeply personal film, Meerapfel follows her family’s German roots in search for her own Jewish identity.
You can learn more about the film here.
This event is co-sponsored by Friends of Freiburg University. The screening will be followed by a wine and cheese reception.
