The EU should help us make a feature film about the rescue of Bulgarian Jews and spread it worldwide, Michael Bar-Zoar, author of the documentary "Beyond Hitler's Grasp", said for the BNR. The documentary was presented in the European Parliament at a conference dedicated to the 80th anniversary of the rescue of the Bulgarian Jews, organised by Bulgarian MEPs. 

"Today, when we mark the 80th anniversary of this heroic rescue, in times of geopolitical turmoil caused by an aggressor, let us remember how important it is to never be silent in the face of evil," said European Parliament President Roberta Metsola in her message to the participants, the BNR’s correspondent in Brussels Angelina Piskova reported.
