Film: Operation Finale
View on Netflix prior to discussion.
Then join a ZOOM DISCUSSION moderated by Stewart Crane and Gerry Gartenberg.
Historian Hannah Arendt spoke of the “banality of evil” to describe how Adolph Eichmann, one of the architects of the Final Solution, bureaucratically organized the mass killing of millions of Jews.
In Operation Finale Mossad Agent Peter Malkin (Oscar Issac), a not always by-the-book Nazi hunter pursues Eichmann (Ben Kingsley) in South America. Malkin and his agents are tasked with seeking justice, not revenge, even as many are haunted by their own memories of Nazi atrocities.
