    Desc: We Were There: Christianity During the Holocaust: Directed by Pierre Sauvage. With Madeleine Barot, André Dumas, Franklin Littell, Jean-Marie Soutou. In 'We Were There: Christianity and the Holocaust' (67 min., 2011), consisting of three distinct but interconnected shorts, documentary filmmaker Pierre Sauvage ('Weapons of the Spirit') pursues his exploration of Christian rescue during the Holocaust--and of the Christian share of responsibility for the crime. 'Three Righteous Christians' (33 min., 2011) provides the eloquent testimony of three French rescuers of Jews during the Holocaust. In 'We Were There: Rev. Franklin Littell Confronts the Holocaust' (27 min., 2011), the late Rev. Dr. Littell forcefully argues that the Holocaust was and is a crisis for Christians as well as for Jews. 'An Interview with Magda Trocme' offers up the equally direct and articulate testimony of the extraordinary widow of the pastor of Le Chambon-sur-Lignon, France, during the Holocaust.
