AMONG NEIGHBORS
Documentary | 100 Minutes | Language: English and Polish with English subtitles
Combining magical realism and evocative hand-drawn animation with revelatory interviews and verité footage, “Among Neighbors” examines the story of a small, rural town where Jewish and Polish Catholics lived side by side for centuries before World War II. The film brings the Polish response to the Holocaust to life through the last living eyewitnesses, revealing both love and betrayal as it zeroes in on one of the last living Holocaust Survivors from the town, and an aging eyewitness who saw Jews murdered there – not by Nazis, but by her own Polish neighbors. Produced and directed by award-winning filmmaker Yaov Potash.
