Session of the 14th Atlàntida Mallorca Film Fest. Chantal Akerman series.

Food, family and philosophy. In New York, in a wasteland in front of the Williamsburg Bridge, men and women, young and old, look at the camera in fixed shots and tell their stories of Jewish emigrants who survived the pogroms and the Holocaust. Between memory and oblivion, their tragic stories also speak of hope, of scorn, of the desire for a better life.
