The Whistle
A Jewish doctor and his family are living a comfortable life in Cologne, Germany when, in 1938, the Nazis enact a law making it illegal for a Jewish doctor to treat non-Jews. Our doctor defies that law and the consequences are harsh. Will his past determine his future? The Whistle is a testament to the power of empathy, hope, courage and integrity, even in the darkest times. Based on a true story.
WHY WE LIKE THIS FILM: A very well told story of survival through animation without dialog.
