Filmvorführungen: »A jiddische Mame. Nikolai Estis erzählt« von Wjatscheslaw Kaminskij und »Bialik – King of the Jews« von Yair Qedar
In the organizer's words:
The films "A Yiddish Mame", an interview with the Jewish, Russian-German painter Nikolai Estis (*1937) and "Bialik - King of the Jews", a documentary about the Israeli national poet Chaim Nachman Bialik (1873-1934), provide insights into the lives of two artistic personalities, whose experiences and work reflect more than a century of Jewish history between a tradition-rooted, destroyed Eastern European shtetl, a newly emerging Hebrew culture in Erez Israel, a suppressed Jewish existence in the former Soviet Union and an orphaned Jewry in Germany after the Shoah. Both are linked by the memory of the "Mame", as Yiddish sounds that call out to the mother lost in the diaspora also lie dormant beneath the verses of the modern Hebrew master. Alexander Estis and Gundula Schiffer will then enter into conversation with the audience.
