Documentary - Voices from the List

The documentary we would like to review is "Voices from the list", directed by MIchael Mayhew.
The documentary is based on a Steven Spielberg's film, called "The Schindler's list", that shows the story of jews saved by Oskar Schindler from Nazi forces, in the Second World War.
This documentary shows interviews with the jews that were in the Schindler's list, and. in their reports, They tell about their experiences in the Second War, their lives in now days, and how did they survive until now.
A very memorable part of the film was when one of the jews told that once the workers of the factory that he worked for were forced to spent the night in the factory. In the following day, when they got back to the guetto were murdered.
We would recommend this documentary to anyone who had watched the movie: "The Shindler´s list", because it helps to understend th jew´s point of view. We tought that the film is a great honor to Oskar Shinder.

Social Project



In these days, the social hole between the rich people and poor people are enormous, but we can do something to help get this hole smaller, and we are creating o project that teach poor people extra school subjects to they have a better education.

The After Class project was crated in response to the bad Brazilian education, and in this project the children an teenagers go to night schools close to the favelas to learn the subjects that they miss in the schools.

We hope that with this better education are students have a good job when them grow up, because in now days the majority of the public schools students have not a great job and live with a bad quality of life.
