Part 8: See and don't see (ft. Alisa Lebow)
Manage episode 337364983 series 3003260
With the help of scholar and filmmaker Alisa Lebow, who arrives armed with memories of meeting and speaking with Akerman, we tackle some of the Akerman work most inherently tied up with questions and challenges of Jewish identity, history and politics. These films are: 1980's medium-length TV doc Dis-Moi (Tell Me); 1986's tragicomic examination of Jewish life in New York, Histoires d'Amerique, and 2006's experimental and bracing La-Bas (Down There).

Music:
Do Make Say Think "Goodbye enemy Airship"
Mary 'Queenie' Lyons "See and Don't See"
