Germans and Jews “Don’t expect simple answers in Germans and Jews. Just prepare for formidable questions. Those are the real reasons to see this incisive documentary.” – The New York Times Today’s Germany is one of the most democratic societies in the world. It is also home to the fastest-growing Jewish population in Europe. So how do Germans and Jews live together more than 70 years after the Holocaust? Can issues such as German guilt, anti-Semitism, and reconciliation be discussed openly and honestly? Inspired by a private conversation between the filmmaker, a non-Jewish German, and her Jewish friend, this documentary provides a modern viewpoint that is both provocative and enlightening.
