Pictures of Oskar Schindler The ring that was Given to him.

Schindler’s List I watched the movie Schindler’s List. That movie is a great movie to watch if you want to learn about the Holocaust. It shows what one man will do to save the lives of thousands of Jewish people. This movie is a sad movie because it is a true movie about what they did to the victims of the Holocaust. What they did to the Jewish people is a sad thing but thanks to one man so many people did not die during this time. “ Whoever saves one life, saves the world entire ”
