Refusenik, The Film

The Movement to Save Soviet Jewry

Kathryn Bernheimer, David Shneer

REFUSENIK is the first retrospective documentary to chronicle the thirty-year movement to free Soviet Jews. It shows how a small grassroots effort bold enough to take on a Cold War superpower blossomed into an international human rights campaign that engaged the disempowered and world leaders alike.
