About - The Anne Frank House is the house on the Prinsengracht in Amsterdam, where Anne Frank wrote her now world-famous diary (The Annex) during the Second World War. For this CD-ROM, the Anne Frank House was specially arranged to correspond to the way it was during Annes period in hiding. This CD-ROM, designed for both adults and young people, gives - in clear language and using unique images and film material - a complete picture of everything involving Anne Frank, her family, the House, the Second World War, and hiding from the occupying forces. Virtual tour You visit the front and rear parts of the House (known in Dutch as the voorhuis and Achterhuis), and go back in time to the Second World War. For the CD-ROM, the Anne Frank House was specially laid out as it had been during the time that Anne was in hiding. It seems as if you yourself are actually in the House and, by moving the mouse, you can view all around and also move through the building. You are at the centre of a sphere and can turn 360 degrees and look upwards and downwards as well. Doors open for you and you can zoom in on all kinds of objects that you encounter. You can request supplementary information on these items.

Click Here | Amazon.com Review:
Survivors succeeds in doing what few history books have managed to achieve: putting names, faces, and personalities with those lives destroyed by the atrocities of World War II. Through video testimonies of four Jewish Holocaust survivors--Bert, Paula, Silvia, and Sol, each from different countries and age groups--we hear about what life was like before Hitler's reign of terror, the horror of Nazi rule, and the difficulty of picking up the pieces after the war's end. The two CD-ROM program is constructed so that users can access information in a variety of ways: go directly to the survivors' stories, broken into chapters by year (from 1939 to 1945); examine an interactive map of Europe to learn how individual countries were involved in and affected by the war during each year; scroll through a timeline of key events in the evolution of the war and its aftermath; peruse an index containing definitions and/or descriptions of significant people, places, and events; or connect to a related Web site that explores issues of individual and nationality identity to examine just how the Holocaust could have happened. Sprinkled throughout the CD-ROMs are black-and-white photos illustrating important people, events, and ideas, plus important and sometimes little-known facts about all aspects of the Holocaust. For example, we learn that the Germans made an average of $745 from each prisoner at Auschwitz through their confiscated belongings and labor, and that the SS formed an orchestra of Auschwitz prisoners to serenade their fellow Jews en route to the gas chambers. These seemingly small details tell a thousand stories, opening up the years of World War II to reveal a time of unspeakable inhumanity and injustice. Produced by Steven Spielberg and the Shoah Visual History Foundation, and narrated by Winona Ryder and Leonardo DiCaprio, Survivors has a most impressive pedigree. Fortunately, the depth and presentation of the material it contains lives up to the high standards implied by those affiliated with it: the emotional impact of seeing and hearing Holocaust survivors describe what it was like to see their families die around them--how they were able to resume "normal" life after experiencing such atrocities--leaves an indelible impression on those who experience it. Technically, the interface is virtually seamless, as is switching between the two CD-ROMs that comprise the program. And navigation of the information is quite intuitive, making the program ideal for younger (i.e., middle-school-age) students or those without much computer experience. To describe this as an important program would be an incredible understatement; this should be required viewing for all students of history--for all people--if for no other reason than to prevent such a dark moment in modern life from being forgotten. Only by remembering, through such programs as Survivors, do we honor those whose lives were lost. --Leah Ball |

By way of extensive research, archival footage, and interviews with World War II historians, this documentary brings to life the plot that could have changed world politics forever. While Hitler's reign of terror almost brought the world to its knees and caused unimaginable atrocities, a few brave men on the inside of the Nazi government plotted to take him down. Their story is one of conspiracy, hope, and, ultimately, failure. While The French Resistance and others who fought against the forces of Nazism became justifiably famous for their courage and heroism, perhaps less is known about the men and women who resisted Hitler from within Germany itself. There were many who saw it as a solemn duty to assassinate or overthrow the man who had seized power amid a surge of national pride and confidence but who gradually took the country on a bloody path to destruction. This program tells the true story of the Valkyrie plot and reveals that the plotters were not only driven by their hatred of Hitler but also by a desperate desire to keep the war out of Germany. |

Product Description:
INHERITANCE is the story of Monika Hertwig, a soft-spoken woman struggling with a profound legacy left by a father she never really knew. Monika's father was Amon Goeth. Often described as a "monster," and "inhuman," Goeth was a prominent Nazi leader and commandant of the Plaszow concentration camp. He murdered thousands of Jews during the war. This DVD includes actual footage of his execution. The fact that this man was her father is something that Monika still cannot reconcile. Feeling an aching need to come to terms with this legacy of hatred, Monika reaches out to Helen Jonas, who lived enslaved under Goeth's roof serving as both his maid and prey for nearly two years. In INHERITANCE, sixty years after Amon Goeth's execution, Monika and Helen meet for the first time at what was once Goeth's luxurious villa overlooking the concentration camp. It's a brutally honest, gut-wrenching, and emotional journey that brings both closure and new questions. Not Suitable for Children. |
