Because the period slides are in colour, the filmmaker has all the modern film in black & white. Rather clever, I think hollyeh #SundayNightDocs

Yes - the Germans are speaking German & the Jews Yiddish; the one guy still lives in Poland, so he's speaking in Polish hollyeh #SundayNightDocs

Yes! There's a very old woman who's living in the flat my uncle & his family did. You can walk around the area; it's still mostly intact. Scary doing it #SundayNightDocs Janine 🥂

Cadyk (Tzaddik) "Saint Man" lol It means a very pious, saintly man lol #MovieHeretics

That's a "Farbrengen" - a Rabbi gives a discourse on holy topics; the table should have more Slivovic/wodka glasses on it & the listeners break into song a lot during them #MovieHeretics

A lot of the actors in this perished in the Khurb'n. The synagogue that scene was filmed in was burnt down by the Germans #MovieHeretics

Yiddish has given us the most perfect, versatile word in the world. "Nu". It means "so", but can mean yes, no, eff off, what?, WHAT!, why? HUH? whatever... no limit to it #MovieHeretics

In the book, they don't really say but it seems to be the mid-to-late 1800s Lisa E #MovieHeretics
