Remembering Babyn Yar: Spell Your Name

The special film series Remembering Babyn Yar on Film has been curated for this year’s Ukrainian Film Festival Berlin as a joint project between UFFB and the University of Potsdam’s Institute of Jewish Studies and Religious Studies (Department of German-Jewish Literature).

The program comprises two films that represent the complex cinematic memory of Babyn Yar from different historical periods and contexts. Both address fundamental questions concerning the representability of the Holocaust and the role of testimony.
