No Asylum tells the heart wrenching story of Otto Frank's desperate attempts to seek asylum in the US in order to save his family. Knowing the horrors that await as he is turned down over and over again is difficult to bear, but necessary to remember, as sadly we face a similar refugee situation today. The language and xenophobia used at the time leading up to the holocaust was eerily familiar. Through narration, photos, and interviews with holocaust survivors including those who knew the Frank family personally, this beautifully made film helps us to remember our past, so that we can do all that we can to try and prevent repeating this tragic history.
