Marek Edelman ...and there was Love in the Ghetto
Marek Edelman ...and there was Love in the Ghetto
Astra Film Festival 2020
"Why does nobody ask me if there was love in the ghetto? Why is nobody interested?" – so asked Marek Edelman, resistance fighter and the last leader of the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising, shortly before his death in 2009. In this film, he answers that very question: Good and beauty did exist in the hell of the ghetto. And there was love, too. That was the greatest value, even greater than life itself. Strong, unconditional love, where you are prepared to make the ultimate sacrifice, and give yourself completely to another person. Body and soul.
