The Lithuanian city of Vilna was one of the most important Jewish centers in the world until World War II, when the Nazis murdered about 95% of its Jewish population. Now, an international team of archeologists is excavating the remains of its Great Synagogue and searching for a lost escape tunnel dug by Jewish prisoners inside a Nazi execution site. If you found our Kristallnacht program fascinating (The Good Nazi), you’re sure to find this film just as intriguing, as it also features Dr. Richard Freund’s team of archeologists and geophysicists.
