In partnership with the Boulder Jewish Community Center, the Dairy Arts Center presents 999: The Forgotten Girls, a powerful and deeply moving documentary based on the international bestselling book.
The film tells the harrowing and largely untold story of 999 young Slovak Jewish girls who were deceived into volunteering for government service, only to be deported on the first Jewish transport to Auschwitz. Through survivor testimony and historical insight, the documentary sheds light on their resilience, courage, and the devastating betrayal they endured.
Featuring the voices of the last living survivors, this film offers an essential and poignant look at a lesser-known chapter of Holocaust history.

Dairy Arts Center was founded in 1992 to provide cooperative workspaces for local artists and venues for live performance in Boulder County. Originally owned by the Watts-Hardy Dairy, the building’s transformation from a former milk-processing facility to a thriving multi-disciplinary arts hub for Boulder and beyond is a nationally recognized example of constructive urban development and renewal. The Dairy’s founders envisioned a community arts center where artists of all genres would create and inspire each other and the greater community.
