There are now a total of ten short films of Tomek Wisniewski being shown at
the Museum of Family History. I have announced four so far, and six new ones are ready for you to view. Most of them have interesting instrumental music to go along with the film's scenes. These new films include: 1. Of Bialystok, Poland: --"The Kaufman Brothers", one of whom was Boris Kaufman, the cinematographer for "Twelve Angry Men" and others. The brothers were all natives of Bialystok. --"A Yiddish Song in Bialystok." A large group gathers in Bialystok in 1940 to hear a couple sing what seems to be a Yiddish song. Can anyone identify the song by name? If so, please contact me privately. More films of Bialystok are to come, including a film about the Warner Brothers (also >from Bialystok). 2. Of Zabludow, Poland: --Two films of the Zabludow Synagogue, scans of photos of the interior and exterior of the synagogue, cir 1927. 3. Of Kossovo, Belarus (pre-1939, Kosow Poleski, Poland): --"Berteza Kartuzka: The Street That is No More, 1916" 4. Of Minsk, Belarus: --"Jewish Minsk." While watching this film, you can imagine you are walking or in a horse and buggy down the streets of Minsk as Tomek scans across a few of his very old photographs of Minsk. Also photographs of the synagogue complex and the Choral Synagogue. You can access these films, as well as the previous films announced, on the webpage I've created listing Tomek Wisniewski's films at www.museumoffamilyhistory.com/tomek/films.htm Enjoy!
