MavRadio’s Katie Klemmensen talks with Tim Roper, co-writer and co-producer of the documentary For the Living. What began as a simple documentary about a symbolic bike ride from Auschwitz became a deep, global conversation about empathy, history, and the patterns of human behavior that continue to fuel injustice.
In this interview, Roper reflects on the research, emotional weight, and societal implications behind the film—along with a call to action for students and storytellers alike.
🎬 Premiered at the Omaha Film Festival, For the Living is a crash course in humanity that challenges us not to look away.
