Decades after the Holocaust, award-winning American filmmaker Yoav Potash unearths the haunting mysteries of a small Polish town where people of two different faiths lived side by side for centuries.
At its heart, the film focuses on two individuals who lived through the peril of World War II and its aftermath: Yaacov Goldstein, a Holocaust survivor whose harrowing story exposes both the heights of human compassion and the depths of cruelty, and Pelagia Radecka, an eyewitness to when five Jews were murdered—not by the Nazis but by her own Polish neighbors—six months after the end of World War II.
Join the Center for American Progress for the Washington, D.C., premiere of “Among Neighbors” followed by a conversation with the film’s producer, writer and director Yoav Potash.
