Holocasut Was Dominant Theme
At The Jerusalem Film Festival

DAVID LANDAU

Special to The Jewish News

Jerusalem — A package
tour to Auschwitz — a seem-
ingly bizarre contradiction in
terms — was the subject of
one of the films at the recent
Jerusalem Film Festival,
organized by the Jerusalem
Cinematheque.
It featured both Jewish and
Israeli films and interna-
tional movies of general in-
terest. But, as the
Cinematheque's curator of
Jewish films, Paula Weiman-
Kelman, said, "More and
more of the best international
films are about Jewish
themes." And the dominant
theme here was the
Holocaust.
Package Tour was inspired
by an advertisement in a
Hungarian newspaper an-
nouncing an organized visit
to the site of the Auschwitz
death camp. Hungarian direc-
tor Gyula Gazdag filmed the
140 participants, most of
whom were Holocaust sur-
vivors, with great sensitivity
and respect, merging the
banalities of a coach tour —
such as the guide's concern
over when the group should
stop for coffee — with the
stark memories of the horrors
of Auschwitz.
An Argentinean film, Poor
Butterfly, directed by Raul de
la Ibrre, portrays the story of
a half-Jewish, half-Catholic
woman living in Argentina in
1945. She struggles to come
to grips with her Jewish
heritage and her father's
Communist background.
Other films at the festival
fictionalized real events in
the Holocaust. Escape from
Sobibor, a U.S. movie made
for television, stars Alan
Arkin, who was here for the
festival. The film tells the
story of the attempted escape
from the Sobibor death camp
in Poland of 600 Jews. Half of
them succeeded and 27 are
alive today.
"The aim of this drama was
to reach as many people as
possible through the medium
of television," said
Weiman-Kelman.
But other films relied on
the stark truth of archival
film for their impact.
Maidanek 1944 was compiled
by a German couple, Irmgard
and Bengt von Zur Muhlen,
who travel around Europe col-
lecting contemporary footage
from the concentration
camps. Another documentary,
Witnesses to the Holocaust:
The Trial of Adolf Eichmann,
draws on the videotaped pro-

ceedings of the Eichmann
trial in 1961.
But there were also two
Jewish films with a relaxed,
entertaining view of
Jewishness. Both portray the
"Borscht Belt" vacation
resorts in the U.S. Catskill
Mountains.
One was a humorous
documentary, The Rise and
Fall of the Borscht Belt. The

other was Sweet Lorraine, a
romantic comedy set in one of
the local hotels.

This year's festival, which
proved very popular with
local audiences, featured
more than 100 films from all
over the world, including the
first Egyptian film ever in the
festival.
