Jewish Studies. The Centre for Jewish Studies at Manchester University is pleased to announce that the next Screen & Talk event
will be the streaming of ‘The Black Book’ (2019) by Guillaume Ribot.
Drafted while the Second World War was still raging, the Black Book
contained numerous testimonies of the atrocities committed by the Nazis
against Jews in the Soviet Union. Featuring a wealth of archival footage
and told through the voices of the Jewish-Soviet intellectuals who
gathered the testimonies, this important documentary sheds new light on
the operations of two abhorrent totalitarian regimes, driven by blind
hatred and prejudice. 10 – 14 Nov 2021, online as part of the UK Jewish Film Festival 2021. Further information.
