'Among Neighbors' Film Screening
-
ICS
"Among Neighbors,” the multiple award-winning documentary that political extremists in Poland have attempted to ban, will be the debut film at LA’s newest landmark, The Goldrich Cultural Center, which includes Holocaust Museum LA.
In “Among Neighbors” filmmaker Yoav Potash utilizes both animation and traditional documentary techniques. The film examines the mystery of a small, rural town in Poland where people of two different faiths lived side by side for centuries — until the killing began. “Among Neighbors” reveals both love and betrayal as it zeroes in on a crime committed among neighbors: the murder of Holocaust survivors in Poland, six months after the end of World War II. The chilling facts revealed in the documentary have led the office of Poland’s nationalist president to call for a ban on the film.
The screening will be followed by a panel discussion with filmmakerYoav Potash and writer, author and literary curator Louise Steinman.
