The Return

The Return –a documentary film by Adam Zucker  — the director will be with us to discuss the film following the showing.

HOW DO YOU BUILD YOUR IDENTITY WHEN YOUR PAST HAS BEEN STRIPPED AWAY?

With no access to their heritage, four women are forging a new sense of self. In the country that was once the epicenter of the Jewish world, and now regarded as “the Jewish graveyard,” they are figuring out how to be Jewish in today’s Poland. The movie follows four young women from Warsaw and Krakow who struggle with the concept of being Jewish in Poland – a country that was once home to over 4 million Jews but has now dwindled to about 25,000 mainly due to the horrors of the Holocaust.
