Description: Eight decades after the Holocaust, award-winning American filmmaker Yoav Potash unearths the haunting mysteries of a small Polish town where Catholics and Jews lived side by side for centuries. Among Neighbors focuses on two individuals who lived through World War II and its aftermath: Yaacov Goldstein, a Holocaust survivor whose story exposes both the heights of human compassion and the depths of cruelty, and Pelagia Radecka, an eyewitness to the murder of five Jews by her Polish neighbors six months after the end of the war. Breaking decades of silence for this film, they share secrets they have held for a lifetime. Their experiences are brought to life in stunning animated sequences, enriched by artful touches of magical realism. Together, their accounts illuminate one of the darkest chapters of Poland’s history. View a trailer of the film here. Film run time: 1h 40m This is an in-person program.

Description: No wonder Michelle Friedman became a psychiatrist – she started young. A child of Holocaust survivors, she grew up on a Catskills chicken farm, absorbing a legacy of trauma, displacement, and family violence. In this illustrated memoir, Michelle weaves together hair-raising stories of her parents’ wartime survival with vivid memories of life on the farm in Divine Corners, a remote Borscht Belt hamlet and an unlikely home for cultured Polish Jews raising three children. Her unflinching yet loving inquiry explores Jewish identity, resilience, and what makes one person break while another survives.

In this illustrated memoir, Michelle weaves together hair-raising stories of her parents’ wartime survival with vivid memories of life on the farm in Divine Corners, a remote Borscht Belt hamlet and an unlikely home for cultured Polish Jews raising three children. Her unflinching yet loving inquiry explores Jewish identity, resilience, and what makes one person break while another survives. Divine Corners depicts the struggle it took to make it out of the limited trajectory of her childhood and emerge into a rich life that includes family, community, and professional gratification as a psychiatrist and teacher of rabbis in Manhattan.
