In Yiddish Lebns Fragn (Life Questions )

 

“My subject, in almost all my films, is deep and true socialism, of the kind I found in the Bund’s writings. All the people I interviewed for this film are first of all socialists. They speak socialist-ese, and only afterward Yiddish. Socialism comes first for them, even before the Jewish national identity. That is a legitimate and respectable identity, but it is not connected to the primary goal. That goal is for all human beings to be equal, worthy and decent.”  Eran Torbiner
