The documentary touristic intents centers on the never-completed Nazi resort of Prora, built to house 20,000 working-class Germans and used in propaganda to advance a promise of leisure time for the masses. The film asks: Is there an obligation to remember a building’s dark past? The screening will be followed by Q & A with director Mat Rappaport, the Donald W. Klein Professor of the Practice in Film and Media Studies at Tufts University.
