AsinThe Little Boy Star: An Allegory of the Holocaust

Original titleLe petit garçon étoile

A young Jewish boy is given a star to wear. At first he is proud of his decoration, but soon finds the star overshadowing him. No-one sees the boy, only the star. This affecting allegory, rich with symbolism, gently educates children about the Holocaust in a way that young minds can grasp."
