Download or read book Movie-Made Jews written by Helene Meyers and published by Rutgers University Press. This book was released on 2021-09-17 with total page 237 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Movie-Made Jews focuses on a rich, usable American Jewish cinematic tradition. This tradition includes fiction and documentary films that make Jews through antisemitism, Holocaust indirection, and discontent with assimilation. It prominently features the unapologetic assertion of Jewishness, queerness, and alliances across race and religion. Author Helene Meyers shows that as we go to our local theater, attend a Jewish film festival, play a DVD, watch streaming videos, Jewishness becomes part of the multicultural mosaic rather than collapsing into a generic whiteness or being represented as a life apart. This engagingly-written book demonstrates that a Jewish movie is neither just a movie nor for Jews only. With incisive analysis, Movie-Made Jews challenges the assumption that American Jewish cinema is a cinema of impoverishment and assimilation. While it’s a truism that Jews make movies, this book brings into focus the diverse ways movies make Jews.

Book Synopsis The Nine Hundred by : Heather Dune Macadam

Book excerpt: 'Books such as this are essential: they remind modern readers of events that should never be forgotten' - Caroline Moorehead On March 25, 1942, nearly a thousand young, unmarried Jewish women boarded a train in Poprad, Slovakia. Filled with a sense of adventure and national pride, they left their parents' homes wearing their best clothes and confidently waving good-bye. Believing they were going to work in a factory for a few months, they were eager to report for government service. Instead, the young women-many of them teenagers-were sent to Auschwitz. Their government paid 500 Reichsmarks (about £160) apiece for the Nazis to take them as slave labour. Of those 999 innocent deportees, only a few would survive. The facts of the first official Jewish transport to Auschwitz are little known, yet profoundly relevant today. These were not resistance fighters or prisoners of war. There were no men among them. Sent to almost certain death, the young women were powerless and insignificant not only because they were Jewish-but also because they were female. Now, acclaimed author Heather Dune Macadam reveals their poignant stories, drawing on extensive interviews with survivors, and consulting with historians, witnesses, and relatives of those first deportees to create an important addition to Holocaust literature and women's history.

Book Synopsis Celebration! by : Thomas Abeltshauser
Download or read book Celebration! written by Thomas Abeltshauser and published by Neofelis Verlag. This book was released on 2019-09-02 with total page 353 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 1995 startet das Jüdische Filmfestival Berlin & Brandenburg (JFBB) mit acht Filmen und schließt eine Lücke in der kulturellen Landschaft der Region Berlin und Brandenburg. 25 Jahre später ist es mit mehr als 40 Filmen eine der renommiertesten jüdischen Kulturveranstaltungen in Deutschland. Mit Filmen über jüdisches Leben hierzulande, in Israel und aller Welt werden Stereotype und Vorurteile ausgehebelt und der jüdischen Kultur eine diskursive Plattform gegeben. Eine Erfolgsgeschichte, die vor allem der Gründerin und Festivaldirektorin Nicola Galliner zu verdanken ist, die das Festival liebevoll "ihr zweites Kind" nennt. Das JFBB blickt auf jüdische Lebensrealitäten und provoziert überraschende Einsichten und nuancierte Zugänge. Zur 25. Ausgabe lassen Wegbegleiter*innen das Festival Revue passieren. Filmwissenschaftler*innen und kritiker*innen befassen sich mit einzelnen Filmen und ihrem Beitrag zu einer allgemeinen Filmgeschichte, sie untersuchen vielfältige Aspekte jüdischen Filmschaffens und ihr Mitwirken am Kino der Gegenwart. Denn auch nach 25 Jahren bleibt die Frage aktuell, die schon bei der Gründung des Festivals im Raum stand: Was macht einen Film jüdisch? The Jewish Film Festival Berlin & Brandenburg (JFBB) began with 8 films in 1995, thus filling a gap in the cultural landscape of the Berlin and Brandenburg region. Twenty-five years later and with more than 40 films, it is one of the most prestigious Jewish cultural events in Germany. Films about Jewish life here, in Israel, and all over the world help to overcome stereotypes and prejudices and provide Jewish culture with a discursive platform. A success story, thanks especially to Nicola Galliner, the festival's founder and director, who lovingly refers to the event as her "second child." The JFBB looks at the realities of Jewish life and leads to surprising insights and nuanced approaches. For the 25th edition, fellow supporters recall the festival's past. Film scholars and critics delve into individual films and their contribution to film history overall, and examine various aspects of Jewish filmmaking and their contribution to the present-day cinema. Even after 25 years, the question in our mind when the festival was founded is still relevant today: What makes a film Jewish?

Book Synopsis Jewish Film Directory by : Matthew Stevens
Download or read book Jewish Film Directory written by Matthew Stevens and published by Greenwood. This book was released on 1992-01-28 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jews have played a constant and diverse role in the growth of cinema and film-making. This unique book provides a catalogue of over 1,200 films about Jews and Jewish history, culture, personalities, and issues. It contains entries that have been collected from a variety of sources worldwide (much of it personal correspondence with film-makers themselves) and there is international coverage of the following genres: documentaries; foreign language films; Hollywood features; film testimony; made-for-television mini-series, dramas, and documentaries; educational/instructional films; and Yiddish cinema. Coverage spans from Wallace McCutcheon's silent two-reeler, Old Isaac, the Pawnbroker (1907) to Erwin Leiser's new film, The Class of 1940/Jahrgang 1940, to be released in 1992. Short, medium, and full-length films and monumental mini-series are included--from Evald Schrom's 12-minute Psalm/Zalm to Dan Curtis's 18-hour War and Remembrance. The second part of the book provides a section of comprehensive indexes, cross-referencing all films by subject (e.g. Amsterdam, the Catskill mountains, Nazi propaganda films, the Six Day War, Yiddish culture), director, country of production (at least 28, from Argentina to Yugoslavia), and source material (i.e. novels, plays, stories, diaries). The volume also includes a list of Jewish film festivals and useful addresses of archives and institutes, as well as a bibliography. This is an extremely valuable book for filmographers, historians, researchers, students, libraries, institutes, festival programmers, and film buffs.

Book excerpt: In this rich and compassionate novel, An Observant Wife, Naomi Ragen continues the love story between newly observant California-girl Leah and ultra-Orthodox widower Yaakov from An Unorthodox Match. From the joy of their wedding day surrounded by supportive friends and family, Yaakov and Leah are soon plunged into the complex reality of their new lives together as Yaakov leaves his beloved yeshiva to work in the city, and Leah confronts the often agonizing restrictions imposed by religious laws governing even the most intimate moments of their married lives. Adding to their difficulties is the hostility of some in the community who continue to view Leah as a dangerous interloper, questioning her sincerity and adherence to religious laws and spreading outrageous rumors. In the midst of their heartfelt attempts to reach a balance between their human needs and their spiritual obligations, the discovery of a secret, forbidden relationship between troubled teenage daughter Shaindele and a local boy precipitates a maelstrom of life-changing consequences for all.
