בישראל, הסופרת אידה פינק רק מתחילה לזכות להכרה לה היא ראויה: היא כותבת את סיפוריה בפולנית ולכן נותרה אנונימית יחסית משך שנים רבות. בחו"ל, היא כבר קיבלה פרסים רבים, הביקורות מהללות את יצירתה וסיפרה "עקבות" אף צוין כאחד הספרים הבולטים של שנת 1997 ברשימה היוקרתית של ה"ניו-יורק טיימס", והיה ברשימת המומלצים שלו. סרט זה זורה אור על הסופרת, הכותבת במכונת כתיבה פולנית ישנה, בדירתה הצנועה בחולון, שם היא גרה מאז עלתה לישראל מפולין בשנת 1957.

Who Was Jerzy Kosinski?

This documentary explores the life of Jerzy Kosinski (1933-1991), a Polish-American novelist, best known for his novels The Painted Bird (1965) and Being There (1971), and focusing on his one-time friend Jack Kuper, director of this film. Kuper wrote a memoir called Child of the Holocaust, a tale of a boy on the run during the Holocaust. When he read Kosinski’s The Painted Bird he suspected plagiarism of his book. Kuper traveled to Poland to find out if the renowned Holocaust novel was indeed Kosinski’s true story. What Kuper learned subsequently provided him with a denouement to his investigation.

A Passionate Thinker - Hannah Arendt -

סרט תעודי העוסק בחנה ארנדט, פילוסופית יהודייה-גרמניה. ספרה The Origins of Totalitarianism מ-1951 היה לקלסיקה והיא זו שטבעה את המונח 'הבנליות של הרשע' בהקשר לנאצים. באמצעות תצלומים וסרטי ארכיון, סוקר הסרט את דמותה החל מילדותה בקניגסברג ועד מותה ב-1975 בניו יורק. ארנדט נולדה למשפחה חילונית ובבגרותה למדה תיאולוגיה ולימודים קלאסיים באונ' מרבורג. אז גם ניהלה מערכת יחסים אינטימית עם מרטין היידיגר, מה שמאוחר יותר עורר ביקורת כיוון שהיידיגר התגלה כנאצי מושבע. עם סיום יחסיהם עברה ארנדט לאונ' היידלברג, שם כתבה דיסטרציה על מושג האהבה בהדרכת ק. יספרס. ב-1929 נישאה לפילוסוף גינטר אנדרס. עם עליית היטלר לשלטון נמלטה לפריס....
