Red Zion screening with Buenos Aires’ Pogrom
Series: The 17th Annual New York Jewish Film Festival


Red Zion
US Premiere
Evgeny Tsymbal, Russia, 2006; 52m
To discourage Jews from immigrating to Palestine during the 1920s, the USSR established agricultural collectives in the fertile lands north of the Black Sea. Director Evgeny Tsymbal (Dziga and His Brothers, NYJFF 2004) returns with a compelling documentary about the rise and fall of the Soviet Jewish Autonomous Region in Crimea, featuring newly released archival newsreels.

Buenos Aires’ Pogrom
US Premiere
Herman Szwarcbart, Argentina, 2007; 70m
During the “Tragic Week” of 1919, Argentinian soldiers and vigilante groups murdered more than 100 striking immigrant workers, including Jewish citizens in the Buenos Aires neighborhood of Once. Using rare archival film and dramatic performances, Herman Szwarcbart tries to make sense of this dreadful episode.
