The documentary animation “The man with the face” is already on our YouTube channel
The documentary is dedicated to the Righteous among the Nations Yakiv Sukhenko, who rescued Jews in Rivne during the Holocaust. The Righteous among the Nations is an honorable title given by the State of Israel to those who saved Jews from murder during the Second World War in Nazi-occupied Europe. Yakiv Sukhenko is one of 2,573 Ukrainians who helped save Jews during the war and were given this title. The real photo of this man may never be found, but in the moral sense, Yakiv Sukhenko was a "person with the face" who paid his life for the salvation of others.
The film was made in the framework of the project "Responsibility for the memory" with the support of Rosa-Luxemburg-Stiftung in Ukraine from the costs of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Germany.
