Paper Clips
Documentary. "It began as a lesson about prejudice...What happened next was a MIRACLE." As a part of their study of the Holocaust, the children of the Whitwell, TN Middle School try to collect 6 million paper clips representing the 6 million Jews killed by the Nazis. The bravery and integrity of the students and educators in this film is truly inspiring.
