Bund: The Hope and The Past
0.0/10
Overview
Filmed in New York City and Israel in 1986, David Kedem's hour-long documentary surveys the then-90-year history of the Jewish Labor Bund, from its beginnings in Tsarist Russia on the eve of the 1905 Revolution, through the Bund's blossoming as a broad counter-cultural movement in inter-War Poland, through the years of underground resistance under Nazi occupation, the immediate post-War years, up until the era of dwindling membership in Israel and New York City in the mid-1980s. Features interviews with a score of Bundist activists and several Israeli historians. The interviewees speak in Yiddish, Hebrew, and English, with a Yiddish voice-over narration and translation for the Hebrew- and English-speakers.
