Jewish Family & Children’s Services of Southern Arizona (JFCS) is the proud sponsor of a free public showing of Denial starring Rachel Weisz and Tom Wilkinson with the screenplay by David Hare to be held on Tuesday, February 20, 2018 at 7pm at the JCC, 3800 E. River Road,Tucson.
The film Denial recounts the true story of Dr. Deborah Lipstadt, a professor of Holocaust Studies at Emory University in Atlanta who was sued for libel in a British court by the infamous Holocaust denier, David Irving. After a riveting 10-week trial that attracted worldwide attention, the judge ruled in favor of Dr. Lipstadt, and found Irving to be a racist, falsifier of history, and anti-Semite. The London Times, in referring to this case, wrote “history has had its day in court and scored a crushing victory.”
