I hate Illnois Nazi’s

This documentary covers the town of Stokie, Illnois, which in 1977, had the largest percentage of holocaust survivors in the U.S

Produced by filmmaker Todd Whitman to coincide with the 35th anniversary of these events, the film makes extensive use of archival footage and contemporary interviews to reveal how a debate over First Amendment rights inspired Holocaust survivors to become activists, eventually leading to the creation of the Museum.

It looks like a pretty interesting doc, check out the trailer and the synopsis below.

Movie Synopsis
