‘Among Neighbors’ Film Screening with Director Q and A

In the small town of Gniewoszów, Poland, all signs of its once-vibrant Jewish life have vanished — even the tombstones from the destroyed cemetery were stolen, erasing nearly every trace.

In the acclaimed documentary “Among Neighbors,” the town’s oldest residents, now in the twilight of their lives, break decades of silence, sharing secrets they have carried for a lifetime. The result is an evocative and heart-pounding murder mystery with urgent political relevance. The film has won the Audience Award at San Francisco Indiefest, the Special Award at the Warsaw Jewish Film Festival, and numerous other awards.

Decades after the Holocaust, award-winning filmmaker Yoav Potash unearths the haunting mysteries of this town, revealing the complex interplay of love and hatred that shaped the lives of local Poles and their Jewish neighbors.
