The studio behind the upcoming film "Bonhoeffer: Pastor. Spy. Assassin" is offering free tickets to individuals who identify as antisemitic. The film, set for release on November 22, tells the story of Dietrich Bonhoeffer, a German pastor who opposed Hitler and antisemitism. Angel Studios announced this initiative to combat antisemitism, stating it aims to provoke thought among those with such views. The film highlights Bonhoeffer's moral struggle during Nazi Germany and his commitment to protecting Jewish lives. The director, Todd Komarnicki, emphasized the need for political courage in today's society. Recent surveys indicate a rise in antisemitism, particularly following the October 7 Hamas attack on Israel, which has heightened concerns within the Jewish community.
