a| Border Street - aka That Others May Live
a| In sweeping, multistoried fashion, the film recreates the last days of the Warsaw Ghetto in 1943. Director Aleksander Ford concentrates on the repercussions that war, prejudice, resistance and oppression have upon the children-specifically the young Jewish ghetto dwellers on one side, and the Hitler Youth on the other. The film was banned in Poland as it depicted Jews, rather than communists, as the heroes of anti-German struggle. Just before beginning to make this film Ford was demoted from the directorship of Film Polski. Before leaving the country, he did not present the script to the new industry management. Even though Border Street obtained permission for distribution, opponents accused the film director of neglecting socialist ideology. Similar objections to Ford’s new production appeared during the Congress of Filmmakers in Wisla in 1949, where the high-ranking political leaders instituted “socialist realism” as the leading filmmaking style. There Ford was accused of offending Polish national feelings.
