Films with Jewish Motifs



The club&cafe Mam Ochotę in co-operation with the Jewish Motifs Association invites you to watch the films that were shown during the 6th International Film Festival Jewish Motifs.

The screenings start on Tuesday (7.07) and the first two films to be presented are:

Double Life (30min.)
Poland, 2008
Scriptrwiter and director: Paulina Fiejdasz

Izaak Landesdorfer’s name could be found on the famous Shindler’s list. After the war he changed it into a Polish name in order to hide his true identity. Even though 65 years have passed since the dissolution of the Cracow’s ghetto, the man, who claims he owes his life to Oscar Shindler, still does not want to reveal his true identity so that nobody associates the published memoirs with him.

And the second film:

Volunteers (54 min.)
Israel, 2008
Director: Mooly Landesman

The film poses questions about one’s identity, nationality, and the reasons behind emigrating to a foreign country. In 1960s, kibbutzim – a kind of communes, offered young people from Europe the promised land. Utopian socialism, the sun, alcohol and casual sex. Angelica, the daughter of a former Wermacht officer, becomes discontended.

We will inform you about the next propositions of films presented weekly so check our blog regularly!
