5.0 out of 5 stars Focus is on the good in people. May 29 2007
By Charlie Chaplin - Published on Amazon.com
Format:DVD
We've watched many Holocaust films & documentaries and read hundreds of stories regarding this horrific time in our world's history. It is a delight when a historical piece comes alive that is inspiring in this way -- documenting how a village, teachers, and a kind-hearted man got together to save Jewish children needing refuge in a place they could call home for a while. There are no graphic scenes nor specific verbal descriptions of what happened to people in the concentration camps, so this is really a film you can share with people of any age. In other words, this would be fine to show in schools because of its accuracy and forwardness, yet there's a certain care taken to not horrify a viewer with graphic images or depictions of violence.

5.0 out of 5 stars Jewish Children Saved from Nazis Oct 27 2006
By Virginia Allain - Published on Amazon.com
Format:DVD
Excellent documentary coverage of a small slice of WWII. The Jewish children, separated from their families, gathered at Chabannes in France with hopes of evading the German death camps. The caretakers provided schooling and an almost normal life as the threat of extermination came closer and closer to the 400 children at Chabannes, a small French village.

The interviews with the survivors, including the teachers, gives a good picture of the life there. The many photos and written accounts round out the documentary. Very well done!

5.0 out of 5 stars You Must View this Film! Mar 22 2007
By A Dedicated Teacher - Published on Amazon.com
Format:DVD
I teach sixth graders. We spend time learning about the Holocaust from our WWII unit in our SS book, as well as, our novels. I have just added a film to these studies..."The Children of Chabonnes". All I can say is WOW! It was more touching, informative, and uplifting

than I imagined. It was wonderful. I thought of a hundred ways to use this in school...ok, I may be exaggerating, but it is going

to be a great asset to our curriculum. I cried at a few beautiful statements which I don't do easily. The members of this crew are to be congratulated for a job well done! Guess I better have tissues ready in my classroom. The music was perfect...and the camera shots, dialogue, and updates on the "children" added a valuable, insightful component to this award-winning testimonial!
