I Am Free.. But Who Is Left?: Documentary Screening and Conversation with Director Joanne W. Rudof

Please join us for a screening of I Am Free… But Who Is Left? followed by a Q&A with director, producer, and editor Joanne W. Rudof. A mother, a father, four brothers, and a sister live in Hrubieszów, Poland, a small town with a majority Jewish population. They thrive economically and academically despite antisemitism. Survivors of the family and the town describe the Nazi invasion, brutality, destruction, and murder. Personal photographs and documents enhance reflective first-person accounts.

Joanne Rudof retired as the archivist at the Fortunoff Video Archive for Holocaust Testimonies at Yale University in September 2017 after thirty-three years. She has authored numerous articles, book chapters, and conference papers on Holocaust testimonies. She has edited and produced documentaries including Voices from the Yugoslav Holocaust, Remembering Cz?stochowa, Parallel Paths, and the award-winning national PBS broadcast, Witness: Voices from the Holocaust. During her career, she coordinated over twenty Holocaust testimony projects in North and South America, Europe, and Israel and advised video testimony projects, including a project by the Holocaust Center Boston North. 

This event is free and open to the public. Registration is required, please register to attend this screening in person.

This event is co-sponsored by the JCC of the North Shore.
