November 24 Local Event: Film (Il Rosa Nudo)

In 5440,  I speak of Rudolf Brazda… the “Last Pink Triangle” and we often hear – in a short clip filmed a few years before his death – about his personal story of internment under the Nazi Rule. What follows is information about a documentary about another pink triangle… this is also on my REFLECTIONS page and IS an extra credit opportunity for those in my 5440 class.

Il Rosa Nudo (Naked Rose) is an experimental film inspired by the life of the French ‘Pink Triangle’ deported Pierre Seel. At the very young age of seventeen, Sell was arrested by the Nazis during the war on charges of homosexuality and sent to a concentration camp. In 1982 he was the first homocaust survivor to denounce the atrocities he witnessed.
