The Silent Village: A story of Wales and Lidice

---

To commemorate the 80th anniversary of VE Day, please join us for a film screening of The Silent Village featuring guest speakers at Theatr Soar, Merthyr Tydfil.

In partnership with the Wiener Holocaust Library, the Josef Herman Foundation and the Welsh Jewish Cultural Centre we will present The Silent Village, which remembers the Lidice massacre, whereby a mining community’s entire male population was executed by the Nazis in 1942. The film sees the villagers of Cwmgiedd, Southwest Wales, ingeniously retell and re-enact the tragic story as if happening in Cwmgiedd.
