** _About the film:_**
They met in secret to negotiate the unthinkable–compensation for the survivors
of the largest mass genocide in history. Survivors were in urgent need of
help, but how could reparations be determined for the unprecedented
destruction and suffering of a people? Reckonings explores this untold true
story set in the aftermath of the Holocaust.

Directed by award-winning filmmaker Roberta Grossman, Reckonings recounts the
tense negotiations between Jewish and German leaders. Under the constant
threat of violence, they forged ahead, knowing it would never be enough but
hoping it could at least be an acknowledgement and a step towards healing.
