Out of Exile: The Photography of Fred Stein
New York Jewish Film Festival 2026
January 14 - 28
This visually marvelous documentary, which features the voices of Barbara Sukowa and Mark Waschke, portrays the courageous life and work of German Jewish photographer Fred Stein.
This stylish portrait of German Jewish photographer Fred Stein transports the viewer back to some of the most dramatic historical moments of the mid-20th century. After fleeing the Nazis in the 1930s, the Dresden-born Stein relocated to Paris and then New York, becoming a renowned street photographer and portraitist, capturing the heartbreak of living amidst war without losing sight of his subjects’ essential humanity. This documentary, which features the voices of Barbara Sukowa and Mark Waschke as Lilo and Fred Stein, offers a visually marvelous testament to the artist and his work, as well as to the son who refused to let his father’s legacy fall through the cracks of history.
