 A Jewish 
 Girl in Shanghai is the first Chinese animated 
 film to directly address the Holocaust. 
  The film is set in Shanghai's Little Vienna 
 - the neighborhood where around 30,000 Jewish 
 refugees found shelter during WWII.  The story 
 centers around the friendship between Rina, 
 a European Jewish schoolgirl and A-Gen, a 
 Chinese pancake-seller, who teach each other 
 about their distant worlds as Shanghai struggles 
 beneath its own cruelly portrayed Japanese 
 occupation.  (description adapted from go2films.com)\n
