The session was inaugurated by Sajmeer Sir, HOD of Department of Economics. An introduction about the movie was given by Fathima Fidha of 3rd Economics. It was a movie released in 2008 directed by Mark Herman. The movie was screened in seminar hall at 11 30 am. The movie shows the sad and poor condition of German jews in the concentration camp. The movie demonstrates an innocent friendship between a german boy and a jew child. They disregards all the divisions created by humans in the form of war. The movie shows how difficult it was for refugees to survive the cruel Nazi regime. The movie screening ended with a feedback presented by Fathima Fidha from 2nd Economics.
