Among Neighbors

Among Neighbors is a powerful film that tells an incredible story that has been unknown before now. With a beautiful use of animation, eyewitness accounts, and historical artifacts, this is a history lesson brought to life.

This well-made documentary took 10 years to make as more and more dots connected during the filmmaking, culminating in a fascinating story.

What does it mean to be human? How do we humans act under pressure and at difficult times?

See the film and the different alternative answers, they are all in each and every one of us.

A touching story and creative story telling only reality can bring us viewers. The combination of animation is any thing but brilliant.

I watched the film with tears and fluctuations of fillings. From sad to angry, from suspense to relief.

An interesting way for people that now about the holocaust to learn more and deepen their prespective,as well as for those that have little knowledge but want to learn about the holocaust and the human condition.

Highly recommended !!!

An excellent documentary that clearly shows how Polish antisemitism outlived the War. While some Poles helped Jews during and after the War, the great majority did not. Great story-telling, and marvelous use of animation with live action. Potash is a gifted film maker. I highly recommend this movie!

A must see. Brilliantly composed alternation of past and present. Striking use of animation interspersed with past and present interviews. Very emotionally moving. Important to see to see accurate respresentation of historical events and emotional impact that still resonates deeply with subjects of film.

A remarkable magic of documenting work that took over ten years and shows the unexpected remedy of two people who refuse to forget. Pieces come together only through the skill of the film-maker contrary to the forces of deniel and conformity and old age.

Elegant combination of animation and live shots which form a moving blend of past and present. The absence of material from the period says everything about the attempt to hide, to forget. But there is no forgetting thanks to this film.

It is a testement to deep darkness that was in peoples hearts against the current wave of history-editing. Must watch!
