Sixty years after the Holocaust, a new brand of anti-Semitism has reared its ugly head. Documentary filmmakers Allen and Cynthia Salzman Mondell take closer look at this resurgence of hate in Europe.

Sometimes subtle but more often, as seen in a demonstration in Paris, anti-Semitism has surfaced on university campuses, in the media, on the streets, at political demonstrations, on the Internet and in seemingly innocent social situations. Jews from all walks of life in six different European countries tell of being attacked in their neighborhoods, of cemeteries desecrated, of synagogues burned, of being ostracized at work.

How did this happen… again? What happens next? The Monster Among Us uses amazing personal interviews from renowned scholars, politicians and more to expose how anti-Semitism is far from dead.
