Grapevine: Chelm in Jerusalem
In advance of International Holocaust Remembrance Day, the silent movie Die Stadt ohne Juden (The City without Jews) will be screened on January 17, at 8 p.m., at the Johanniter Chapel at the Church of the Redeemer in the Old City.
Made in 1924 in Vienna, this science fiction classic, based on the novel by Hugo Bettauer, anticipated the Holocaust by more than a decade.
Anyone interested in German-Jewish relations will find this to be a very thought-provoking film. The screening will be accompanied on piano by Peter-Michel Seifried.
