Lessons from Schindler's List
Some survivors praise Schindler’s List for its encouraging others to learn not only about the Holocaust but from it. After talking about her experiences speaking to students in schools in Australia, Esther Fiszman lauds the “enormous lot of good” that Schindler’s List “has done for the young people” by citing a personal story involving her son.
In this anecdote, Esther Fiszman does not probe the connection between her son’s watching Schindler’s List and doing what his heritage--or his mother--expects of him. In her narrative, the film’s moral power to prevent intermarriage is implicitly self-evident.
