EP. 1857: Producer Deborah Coltin (Munkács Miracle)
Matthew Toffolo interviewed Deborah Colton, executive producer of the film "Munkács Miracle," about the extraordinary reunion of Holocaust survivors Magda Bader and Ruth Cohen. Deborah explained how she discovered their shared history and arranged their emotional meeting in Boston at age 95, capturing it on film for educational purposes. She discussed the film's focus on their personal stories, the declining knowledge of the Holocaust among younger generations, and the universal message of resilience and the dangers of hate. The conversation also touched on the importance of kindness, the impact of the survivors' testimonies on students, and the broader need for Holocaust education. WILDsound praised the film's powerful impact and expressed interest in the survivors' ongoing work.
