Manchester Yiddish Residency
This short film documents a week long residency for this BA Leverhulme project, with Yiddish speakers of different generations from around the world, who each ran a session at the Manchester Poetry Library, exploring the content in one issue of Stencl’s magazine Loshn un Lebn. Many lively conversations took place during the week in Yiddish inspired by and focused on one issue of the journal from various decades. This short film shares a glimpse into the many hours of discussions which took place during the residency, with English subtitles for non Yiddish speakers. Full acknowledgements and details of the project are to be found at the end of the film.
