Edek
What happens when an 85 year-old Holocaust survivor teams up with an African-American rapper to make a film? Holocaust survivor Janine Webber and Connecticut-based hip hop artist Kapoo, 43, collaborate to deliver a Hip Hop message to the youth of the world. A poignant and uniquely evocative fusion of prose, music and rap. For the first time, one of the world’s darkest stories is told in an entirely new way. Created by the UK National Centre and Museum.
