Movie Reviews of Watermarks - The Jewish swimming champions who defied Hitler
Movie Review: Strength
Summary: 5 Stars
The Jewish sports club HaKoach (the strength) was formed in 1907, when Viennese sport clubs began to form, but alas, barred Jews.
At its peak, a former HaKoach officer reports, the club had more than 3,000 active youthful participants, who represented Austria in sports from soccer and fencing to swimming.
The film documents the reunion of seven champion Jewish swimmers who fled Vienna in August 1939, more than a year after the Anschluss, Hilter's annexation of Austria to Germany, and a month prior to the Hitler's attack on Poland beginning World War II.
It's a wonderfully touching documentary, and a testament to the human spirit.
