THREE MINUTES, A
LENGTHENING
Three minutes of home movie footage, mostly in color, shot
by David Kurtz in 1938, are the only known moving images left of the Jewish
inhabitants of Nasielsk, Poland, before the Holocaust. Those precious minutes
are examined in intricate detail to unravel the human stories hidden in the celluloid.
Tracing the story of those three minutes begins with the journey of Glenn Kurtz
to discover more about his grandfather's film, ultimately leading to
identifying people and places otherwise erased from history, and helping to
connect a Holocaust Survivor with his lost childhood. (Netherlands/UK, 2022, 69min., In English, Polish, German, and Yiddish,
