He takes his family back to Poland where his parents were protected by Gentiles during the Holocaust. He is trying to show his Family that there are good people in every culture and Nation.

The interesting point that stuck out to me was that his own father, who supported hatred towards the Gentiles, was brought back to Poland to meet those who saved his life; Polish Gentiles.
I probably shouldn't have commented in this thread without having viewed the film first. I have a hard time viewing and listening to things about Jews, that's probably a bit irrational, but usually such things are very negative
.
I'm glad you told me about the what this man is trying to do. I hope he is being very understanding towards his father. One can't judge what he must have endured even being saved.

One of my favorite people in all the world is Corrie ten Boom. I know God gave special grace and strength to that dear family.
I just wish there would have been so many more.

I'll try and work up the courage to view the film.
Thanks for taking the time to respond.

Corrie ten Boom and her family were, in my opinion, real Christians even though they were not OP and would not even be considered as going to heaven by many OP's. I do not think they were the only Christians who helped Jews throughout history. Over the years there have been many "righteous Gentiles" who have helped Jews.

I also thought the film was deeply authentic, as great effort is put forth by Jewish people on both sides of the fence who are engrained in their culture and religious values.
Excellent video.

These are the Jews I'm talking about.
I understand, but I am speaking from the standpoint of what God thinks.

Also, the Old Testament supports accounts of genocidal practices by the Jewish people, giving flame to current extremism regarding their love for the Torah. I don’t know if you’ve seen this film, but it is very revealing concerning this subject.
I watched the video segment you posted. Looks interesting.

Israel has a special recognition for the "Righteous Gentile". They are held in very high regard. I would love to see the "Garden of the Righteous" one day. They are also entitled to citizenship of Israel and all the rights that come with that.
I believe there's over 22,000 names inscribed on the Wall of Honor, so yes, there certainly are many who have helped Jews.

I'm not sure what OP means, but it can't possibly mean they/it are the judge of who enters heaven.
Jesus said there is no greater love then one who would lay down their life for their brother.
