ONE of Ireland’s premier film producers will host what promises to b e a very informative questions and answers session with the Killarney public following the screening of one of his highly-acclaimed documentaries.
Gerry Gregg of PraxisPictures is the creative genius behind Close to Evil which tells the story of Holocaust survivor Tomi Reichental.
Tomi was only a child when he and his entire family were rounded up by the Nazis and sent to Bergen-Belsen concentration camp. By the time the camp was liberated by the Allies in 1945, eight of his family had perished.
This highly emotional and incisive television documentary follows Tomi as he seeks to reconcile with his former captors and jailers.
Tomi Reichental will be in Killarney for the event as part of the Monsignor Hugh O’Flaherty memorial festival.
It will be screened in the Killarney Plaza Hotel at 7.00pm on Friday, November 14 and admission is free.
After the screening Gerry Gregg will host a question and answer session with the audience on the making of the documentary.
