Die faszinierende Beschreibung der Sinneswahrnehmung und des Seelenzustandes verfolgter, erschöpfter Menschen sprengt die Gesetze des Spielfilms und gestaltet sich zu einem Gleichnis von Flucht und Freiheit, Angst und Hoffnung. [Film-Dienst]
    Abstract: With its virtuoso cinematography, inspired editing and brilliantly utilised soundtrack, the film is a landmark of the ill-fated Czech New Wave. Its themes of man's perpetual struggle to preserve human dignity in the face of unimaginable horrors are just as relevant today. [Cover]

    Abstract: Screening Auschwitz examines the classic Polish Holocaust film The Last Stage (Ostatni etap), directed by the Auschwitz survivor Wanda Jakubowska (1907-1998). Released in 1948, The Last Stage was a pioneering work and the first narrative film to portray the Nazi German camp. Haltof's fascinating book offers to English-speaking readers a wealth of new materials and sources, mostly from original Polish sources and obtained through extensive archival research. With its powerful dramatization of the camp experience, The Last Stage shaped subsequent Shoah films, establishing several quasi-documentary themes easily discernible in later Holocaust narratives: the dark, "realistic" images of the camp; the passionate moralistic appeal; and the clear divisions between victims and perpetrators. Jakubowska's film introduced the images of camp life that are now archetypal--for example, morning and evening roll calls on the Appelplatz, the arrival of transport trains at Birkenau, the separation of families, and tracking shots over the belongings left by the gassed camp victims. These and other images reinforced the depiction of Nazi German concentration camps and are discernible in a number of subsequent American films, including George Stevens's The Diary of Anne Frank (1959), Alan Pakula's Sophie's Choice (1982), and Steven Spielberg's Schindler's List (1993). Haltof discusses the unusual circumstances that surrounded the production of the film on location at Auschwitz-Birkenau and summarizes critical debates surrounding the film's release. The book offers much of interest to film historians and readers interested in the Holocaust.--

    Abstract: "Motivated by Woody Allen's brief comedic transformation into a Hasidic Jew in Annie Hall, cultural historian Shaina Hammerman examines the effects of real and imagined representations of Hasidic Jews in film, television, theater, and photography. Although these depictions could easily be dismissed as slapstick comedies and sexy dramas about forbidden relationships, Hammerman uses this ethnic imagery to ask meaningful questions about how Jewish identity, multiculturalism, belonging, and relevance are constructed on the stage and silver screen"--

    German Concentration Camps Factual Survey (2017)
    London : BFI
    Details
    Language: English
    Pages: 2 DVD-Videos (69 Min.) , schwarz-weiß
    Year of publication: 2017
    Uniform Title: German concentration camps factual survey
    Keywords: DVD-Video ; Blu-Ray-Disc
    Abstract: This hugely important film documents the liberation of Belsen and other concentration camp by Allied forces in Spring 1945. The production was originally shelved by the Ministry of Information in 1945, before being restored and completed by IWM in 2014. This Special Archival Edition has been produced in collaboration with the IWM and contains the museum's restoration, plus substantial extra features and some previously unseen footage that help to contextualise the film, a perfect-bound book, and commentary. The story of this extraordinary documentary was itself the subject of the Emmy-winning film "Night Will Fall" (which was released by the BFI in 2014). [www.bfi.org.uk]
    Abstract: Die Alliierten, die 1944 und 1945 die deutsch besetzten Gebiete Europas und schließlich auch Deutschland unter ihre Kontrolle brachten, hatten nicht nur die militärische Befreiung im Sinn. Sie wussten, dass sie dem Nazi-Spuk auch propagandistisch ein Ende bereiten mussten. Russen, Amerikaner und Briten kamen mit Kamerateams und Fotografen, die nicht ahnten, welche Gräuel sie auf Film bannen würden. Als britische Truppen im April 1945 das KZ Bergen-Belsen befreiten, dokumentierten die Kameras ihrer "Psychological Warfare Division" detailliert, was sie vorfanden. Zwischen mehr als 10 000 Leichen und 15 000 sterbenden Menschen verrichteten sie die wohl schwerste Arbeit ihres Lebens. Aus ihren Aufnahmen sollte im gleichen Jahr ein Film entstehen, der die Deutschen mit ihrer Schuld konfrontierte. Dazu kam es nie. Selbst die Mitarbeit von Alfred Hitchcock verhinderte nicht, dass das ambitionierte Werk Ende 1945 in den Archiven verschwand. Unter dem Titel "Memory of the Camps" fand ein Fragment 1984 Aufführung beim Forum, ein Jahr später im amerikanischen Fernsehen. Rekonstruiert und ergänzt ist dieser Meilenstein des Dokumentarfilms erst jetzt in seiner beabsichtigten Form zu entdecken. [www.berlinale.de]

    Uniform Title: Le chagrin et la pitié
    Keywords: Blu-Ray-Disc
    Abstract: Am Beispiel der Stadt Clermont-Ferrand erzählt Marcel Ophüls in Interviews und mit dokumentarischem Material davon, wie sich Menschen während der Zeit der deutschen Besatzung in Frankreich verhalten haben. Er berichtet von Widerstandskämpfern, Kollaborateuren, Verrätern und solchen, die die Ereignisse nur beobachtet haben wollen. In der Montage entsteht ein vielschichtiges Bild von Anpassung und Widerstand. Während der Film in Frankreich lange Jahre nicht im Fernsehen laufen konnte, da er die Widersprüche auf französischer Seite nicht ignorierte, tilgte der Untertitel der früheren gekürzten deutschen Version den Sinn der französischen. Hieß dieser "Chronique d'une ville française sous l'occupation", ersetzte jener mit "Chronik einer französischen Stadt im Kriege" gleichsam den deutschen Anlaß der Okkupation durch den allgemeinen Krieg. - Sehenswert.

    Abstract: The influence of Jews in American entertainment from the early days of Hollywood to the present has proved an endlessly fascinating and controversial topic, for Jews and non-Jews alike. From Shtetl to Stardom: Jews and Hollywood takes an exciting and innovative approach to this rich and complex material. Exploring the subject from a scholarly perspective as well as up close and personal, the book combines historical and theoretical analysis by leading academics in the field with inside information from prominent entertainment professionals. Essays range from Vincent Brook's survey of the stubbornly persistent canard of Jewish industry "control" to Lawrence Baron and Joel Rosenberg's panel presentations on the recent brouhaha over Ben Urwand's book alleging collaboration between Hollywood and Hitler. Case studies by Howard Rodman and Joshua Louis Moss examine a key Coen brothers film, A Serious Man (Rodman), and Jill Soloway's groundbreaking television series, Transparent (Moss). Jeffrey Shandler and Shaina Hamermann train their respective lenses on popular satirical comedians of yesteryear (Allan Sherman) and those currently all the rage (Amy Schumer, Lena Dunham, and Sarah Silverman). David Isaacs relates his years of agony and hilarity in the television comedy writers' room, and interviews include in-depth discussions by Ross Melnick with Laemmle Theatres owner Greg Laemmle (relative of Universal Studios founder Carl Laemmle) and by Michael Renov with Mad Men creator Matthew Weiner. In all, From Shtetl to Stardom offers a uniquely multifaceted, multimediated, and up-to-the-minute account of the remarkable role Jews have played in American movie and TV culture

    Abstract: Warriors, Witches, Whores: Women in Israeli Cinema' is a feminist study of Israel?s film industry and the changes that have occurred since the 1990s. Working in feminist film theory, the book adopts a cultural studies approach, considering the creation of a female-centered and thematically feminist film culture in light of structural and ideological shifts in Israeli society. Author Rachel S. Harris situates these changes in dialogue with the cinematic history that preceded them and the ongoing social inequalities that perpetuate women?s marginalization within Israeli society

    Abstract: Directed by Lodz native Aleksander Ford and financed by the Jewish Labor movement in Poland, "Children Must Laugh" is one of the few surviving documentaries about Jewish life in Poland before WWII. This institutional film was produced to raise funds for the Vladimir Medem Sanitarium which, noted for its modern and spacious facilities, stood as the embodiment of health and enlightenment, in striking contrast to the grim images of urban Polish-Jewish poverty. The sanitarium's theme song, "Mir Kumen On (Here We Come)," punctuates the film with a sense of hope and accomplishment. The Bund's optimistic internationalism, exemplified by the children's endearing performances, permeates the film, creating powerful yet unintended ironies for post-Holocaust audiences.

The memoir describes the living conditions, illnesses and deaths in the ghetto. She also recalls religious celebrations and cultural activities. The mass deportation of Jews from Lodz in September 1942 is described. Ruth's son Michael was exampted due to her husband's interventions. Ruth's mother, who was with them in the ghetto, died in 1943. In 1944 the famly was deported to Auschwitz and Stutthof. The living conditions of these camps are described. Ruth was transported to a work camp in Dresden, and was in the city during its destruction in February 1945. After the destruction of the city Ruth was transferred to a series of concentration camps, finally escaping on a death march. She was liberated by American soldiers in May 1945. In 1946 she was reunited with her son Michael, who had survived the Stutthof concentration camp.

    Keywords: DVD-Video
    Abstract: Die unglaubliche Geschichte eines aus Rumänien stammenden jüdischen Unternehmers, der 1907 nach Frankreich einwanderte und in den 20er Jahren die gesamte französische Filmindustrie beherrschte. Bernard Natan eröffnete Hunderte Kinos im ganzen Land. Nach Aberkennung der französischen Staatsbürgerschaft wurde er 1942 nach Auschwitz deportiert und dort ermordet ... Tragisch ist vor allem auch, dass einer der mächtigsten französischen Filmproduzenten fast völlig aus dem kollektiven Gedächtnis verschwunden wäre, hätten nicht zwei irische Regisseure seinen abenteuerlichen und risikofreudigen Lebensweg in den Mittelpunkt dieses spannenden Dokumentarfilms gestellt.Wie konnte eine solche Persönlichkeit vergessen und so radikal aus der offiziellen Geschichtsschreibung gestrichen werden? Mit zahlreichen Filmausschnitten, reichem Archivmaterial und dank sehr aufschlussreicher Interviews unter anderem mit Natans Enkelin haben David Cairns und Paul Duane das berührende Porträt des Natan Tannenzaft alias Bernard Natan geschaffen: ein Film gegen das Vergessen über einen Kinopionier und Visionär aus den Anfängen der Filmgeschichte.

    Abstract: Dokumentarische Erzählung über die Rekonstruktion eines Filmprojekts der Alliierten, das unmittelbar nach Beendigung des Zweiten Weltkriegs von den Gräueltaten der Nazis hätte Zeugnis ablegen sollen. Aus politischen Gründen verschwand das brisante Material aber jahrzehntelang im Archiv ... Erst 2010 machten sich Historiker gezielt auf die Suche nach dem legendären Rohmaterial, wurden tatsächlich fündig und arbeiteten seither an die Rekonstruktion dessen, was der gut einstündige Lehr- und Dokumentarfilm hatte sein sollen. Seine verspätete Uraufführung erlebte "German Concentration Camps Factual Survey" während der Berlinale 2014. Im gleichen Jahr war dort auch "Night Will Fall" zu sehen. In dieser Dokumentation von André Singer wird die Geschichte jenes Films nachgezeichnet, der über Jahrzehnte auch als "Missing Hitchcock" bezeichnet wurde. [www.goethe.de]

    Abstract: Am Beispiel eines jüdischen Emigranten in New York kurz vor der Jahrhundertwende, der rasch den Habitus der Neuen Welt annimmt, wird der Zusammenprall zweier Welten rekonstruiert, als dessen in der orthodoxen jüdischen Tradition erzogene Frau mit ihrem kleinen Sohn aus Rußland nachkommt. An den Stationen des Scheiterns dieser Ehe fädelt sich wie von selbst eine Anthologie amerikanischer Verhaltensweisen auf. Ein durch Spontaneität und Natürlichkeit fesselnder Film, der alle Klischees zu vermeiden versteht und verschmitzt, hintersinnig und mit bitterer Ironie erzählt. Behutsam und menschlich überzeugend werden die Menschen und ihr Milieu gezeichnet. - Sehenswert ab 14. [Film-Dienst]

    Abstract: Description of the life of Rosemarie L. Joseph from her happy childhood in Germany, the danger during the Nazi Regime, the immigration to the USA, until her retirement in Florida, narrated in 11 chapters and illustrated with photographs and figures showing family members and documents.
    Abstract: Rosemarie Joseph describes her family and their life in Berlin. The father was a businessman, dealing with women’s clothes. The author writes about her years at a public school, where she met anti-Semitism for the first time. Later she went to a private school in Berlin-Lichterfelde. The memoir deals with the upcoming Nazi Regime and describes how the family experienced anti-Semitism, the terror, despair and confusion; especially the events of the “Reichskristallnacht” and the efforts to emigrate are described. Eventually Rosemarie was able to go to London, which was made possible by the Bloomsbury House, which offered older children, who were not eligible for the “Kindertransport”, to escape to Great Britain. The memoir tells about the escape of Rosemarie’s parents. Her father was born in Danzig, which was considered a free State by Hitler after the war began. Therefore Hartwig Deutschland received a “Danzig Quota” number 7 for travel to America and the couple left Germany immediately and soon arrived in New York. Shortly afterwards Rosemarie got a visa to enter the USA, too.
    Abstract: The memoir tells about her first years in the USA, her job as a pediatrics nurse at the Israel Zion Hospital, her job caring for a small child, her years studying at Hunter College, her job at the Blood Bank at University Hospital as well as how she met her husband Hans Joseph. She was lucky to get a grant of $1,800.00 from the Educational Foundation for Jewish Girls and so she was able to enroll at the Polyclinic Hospital and Medical School for one year. After passing the Registry Exam she was allowed to work as a Medical Technologist of the American Society of Clinical Pathologists. Her first job then was at a private medical laboratory in Brooklyn. 1952 she started to work part time at the Jewish Memorial Hospital, which soon turned into a full time job. She worked there until 1982. Furthermore Rosemarie writes about her struggle to get a child. Finally the couple adopted two boys, Claude and Andrew. The memoir gives account of the family’s decision to buy a house at Lake Carmel in Putnam county, N.Y., their animals, the family life, how Rosemarie started oil painting, her retirement, her voluntary work at the Residential Treatment Center for autistic children, the death of her husband, a new relationship; and finally her move to West Palm Beach, Florida and her life there, together with a lot of volunteer activities, music and trips to several places in the USA and Europe. Finally, the memoir includes a paragraph about Rosemarie’s contribution to the Shoa Foundation with Steven Spielberg as a chairman plus a copy of the letter that Spielberg sent to Rosemarie, saying thank you for her help.

    Keywords: Benjamin, Walter, ; Fittko, Lisa, ; Anti-fascist movements. ; Holocaust, Jewish (1939-1945) Drama. ; Theater. ; World War, 1939-1945 Underground movements. ; Manuscripts.
    Abstract: Theater play, written in 1999. It dramatizes the 1940 flight across the Pyrenees by anti-Nazi activist Lisa Fittko and writer/philosopher Walter Benjamin. Inspired by Lisa Fittko's memoirs, the play follows the converging stories of Lisa Fittko, a pragmatic activist intent on saving lives, and Walter Benjamin, an unworldly philosopher who wants only to save his cherished manuscript. Their stories climax at the French-Spanish border where Lisa, on her first solo trip as a border guide, tries to save Benjamin and two other refugees from the Nazis. Calling Mrs. Fittko an "unsung heroine of the Holocaust", the playwrights explore the nature of heroism and resistance and the motivation of ordinary heroes like Lisa and her husband Hans Fittko. The Angel of History is one of four plays to win the national 1998 festival of new plays sponsored by the Jewish Ensemble Theater in Michigan.

    Abstract: In a memoir written for her daughters, Inge (Irene) Brenner recounts her family’s history, growing up in Berlin with her parents, her maternal grandfather Samuel Oppenheimer and her two sisters, Lony (born 1913) and Marianne (born 1922). She tells of the hardship that befell Jewish families after the Nazis’ rise to power. Her sister Lony left for Paris in 1933 and later worked as a secretary for the Zionist politician Vladimir Jabotinsky. Inge met her future husband Hans (Harold) Brenner in 1937 in Berlin; he was able to immigrate with the help of an American cousin and sent for Inge soon after Kristallnacht. They met in Havana, Cuba, and were married there. He returned to New York while Inge waited for her visa in Cuba, then entered the United States via Miami. Hans and Inge lived in a small apartment in Washington Heights, eventually joined by his parents as well as Inge’s parents and younger sister Marianne. When Lony and her husband Maurice arrived from Paris, they started a small business that employed several members of the family. Hans and Inge had two daughters, Barbara and Jessica; Maurice and Lony had one daughter named Linda. Inge also describes her younger sister’s life in some detail. Marianne, in an ultimately broken marriage with Henry Dreifus, gave birth to her only daughter at the age of 22. Claudia Dreifus was raised until the age of eight by her grandmother, Emma Willdorff, and later by her father and step-mother. Marianne went on to suffer a nervous breakdown, followed by a severe car accident. She spent her final years living in Reno with her second husband Aram Jorjorian. Following a second divorce, Marianne died at age 55.
