‘Among Neighbors’ in depth
Using hand-drawn animation to bring the past to life, “Among Neighbors” focuses on one of the last living Holocaust survivors from a small Polish town, and an eyewitness who saw Jews murdered there — six months after the Nazis were defeated. The Jerusalem Post calls it “a fascinating new documentary.” Produced and directed by award-winning filmmaker Yoav Potash (“Crime After Crime,” Sundance Film Festival) and Executive Produced by Anita Friedman, “Among Neighbors” is an evocative and heart-pounding murder mystery with urgent political relevance.
