Movie reviews

FALENICKA ATLANTYDA

Watchable. Documentation-wise it's spotless. But it means the only thing you learn about the Falenica - a town with 70% Jewish population before the war - ghetto is hunger. That's because no first hand testimonies were available. For history buffs, it may be important but for me, apart from learning how many Jews there were before the war, coexisting with no racism with the Polis population, and the mere fact there was a ghetto there, I learnt nothing new. Well, one girl saved herself from a rape when she said she was 13 in German. That's it. No more benefits of the movie.
