The city and The City

סרט תיעודי על קהילת יהודי סלוניקי. שבסלוניקי חיה, והשפיעה אחת מהגדולות בקהילות היהודיות. התושבים היהודים היוו למעלה מחמישים אחוז מתושבי העיר ולכן נחשבה לאחת הקהילות החשובות ביותר בין קהילות הבלקן. הגרמנים נכנסו לסלוניקי באפריל 1941 והחלו לפעול מידית כנגד היהודים. בינואר 43' הטיל אייכמן את המשימה של חיסול יהודי סלוניקי על עוזרו. לאחר שהיהודים רוכזו בשלושה גטאות צפופים התחילו הנאצים בשילוחים, בחודש מרץ הקהילה הגדולה והמפוארת הושמדה כמעט לחלוטין. היום הקהילה בסלוניקי מונה פחות מאלף יהודים. שרידים בודדים לקהילה משמעותית.

Beyond History: My Father & the Greek Jews of Albnia

A documentary. Isaak Dostis is searching for memory, both individual and collective. The endeavor has taken him to Albania, Greece, Israel and America. Memory is emotional. When it is lost to history, it becomes a statistic. Statistics are beyond individual moments. At that point, it is beyond history. Isaak’s memory of his father, Sam, will sink into oblivion once no one remembers his memory. The film is an attempt to stay that execution.

Recently , he and his wife, Diana, went to Israel and Greece to visit the surviving family on his mother's side. The saga began: seven of the family were saved by a Righteous , many more perished. This film is a docymentary of the joy and sadness that attends both sides of the story.
