The documentary "Stolperstein" tells the story of tiny brass stones created and etched by German artist Gunter Demnig. The stones are embedded into the concrete in front of homes where individuals, who were targets of the Nazis, once lived before being deported. The movie is in German with English sub-titles.

The movie's producer, Gunter Hanfgarn, will be present to make comments about the making of the movie, and to answer questions. This screening marks the Canadian premiere of this movie.
