When the World Looked Away, One Man Chose to Act

The 11th Screening the Holocaust Series opens with a special presentation of Honorable Mr. Morgenthau, winner of the Miami Jewish Film Festival 2026 Kadima Jury Prize For this special evening, Director Hilan Warshaw will join in person to introduce the film and take part in an extended conversation with the audience following the screening.

A powerful and timely exploration of bigotry, loyalty and moral courage, Honorable Mr. Morgenthau reveals the untold story of Treasury Secretary Henry Morgenthau, Jr., the only Jewish member of Franklin D. Roosevelt’s Cabinet, and his courageous effort to confront America’s failure to respond to the plight of European Jews. As evidence of Nazi atrocities mounted, Morgenthau overcame political caution and his own reluctance to speak out, ultimately helping establish the War Refugee Board, which saved tens of thousands of lives.
