AMONG NEIGHBORS
Combining magical realism, evocative hand-drawn animation and vérité footage, AMONG NEIGHBORS examines the story of a rural Polish town where Jews and Catholics lived side by side for centuries before World War II. The film zeroes in on the town’s only living Holocaust survivor and revelatory interviews with an aging eyewitness who saw her Jewish friends and neighbors murdered there—only not by N***s but by her own neighbors. AMONG NEIGHBORS brings the Polish response to the Holocaust to life through its last living witnesses and their stories of love and betrayal silenced for decades.
Directed by award-winning filmmaker Yoav Potash (CRIME AFTER CRIME, SJFF 2019), this powerful documentary plays like a real-life murder mystery, excavating buried truths of violence, complicity and silence. As efforts to rewrite history gain momentum, AMONG NEIGHBORS offers a bold counterpoint—insisting that true nationalism and patriotism demand an unflinching confrontation with the past, no matter how painful the truths revealed.
