Lève-toi et va
Guided by a poem written after the 1903 Kishinev pogrom, filmmaker Zohar Wexler returns to present-day Chișinău and his own family history. The journey connects a city’s damaged Jewish memory with the descendants who still carry it.
Why it’s here
Zohar Wexler’s French documentary directly engages present-day Chișinău while connecting the city’s Jewish history to a personal outsider journey.
