According to local author and filmmaker Susie Davidson, even though her documentary "The Holocaust: Memory and Legacy" ends with a pronouncement that the world hasn't changed or learned, "the final song in the end credits is very lovely and upbeat." "We Are Here" by Rosalie Gerut celebrates that "the survivors are here, have children and grandchildren, still dance, and still embrace life," according to the filmmaker. Davidson's one-hour film about local Holocaust survivors features Ida Rozenberg who escaped a Siberian work camp on a handmade raft. Tonight's screening is followed by a panel discussion. 7 p.m. Suggested donation of $5, $3 for students and seniors. Temple Beth Zion, 1566 Beacon St., Brookline. 617-566-2277. www.tbzbrookline.org
