Contents/Summary
- Summary
- A travelogue that documents the Jewish exodus from Slovakia just before the beginning of World War II. In two boats, a group of nine hundred Slovak and Austrian Jews tried to reach the Black Sea on the Danube in order to get to Palestine from there. The returning boat witnesses the exodus of Bessarabian Germans, fleeing to the Third Reich from the Soviet invasion of Bessarabia. The film features the amateur films of Captain Nándor Andrásovits, the captain of one of the boats. (For all documentary films directed by Péter Forgács see fonds number: HU OSA 320).
