Luminescence Media Group NFP (LMG-NFP) is a not-for-profit media production organization creating documentary films, educational websites, and publications.

 

Its first project, in 2002, was the educational web portal, Rumbula.org. The website is maintained as an archive so that its original content continues to be available. 

 

In development, is republishing a 54-page booklet about antisemitism, The Jew Man. Originally appearing in the aftermath of the Henry Ford antisemitism trial in 1927, today The Jew Man will provide historical insights into the trial and times.

 

LMG-NFP has produced a number of short films about or related the Holocaust in Latvia. Its major project is the feature-length documentary film, Rumbula’s Echo.
