JEWISH WANDERERS
What does it mean to be a Jew in the 21st century? What did it mean 70 years ago? Can a Jew be a Muslim and can a concentration camp be a playground? What is Eisenstein looking for in all of that? By looking through both historical and modern lens, an attempt is made to discover problems, interesting situations or conditions people encounter among us, as well as those “wanderers”, about whose fate we tend to forget in our daily life.
