Photography by V. KazimierczakFocusing on Cracow's Jewish quarter, this film intermingles old and new, using music to enhance the images.
Streetcars share tree-lined streets with horse-drawn carriages; people conduct business under umbrella-covered markets and arcaded market halls;
parks and schoolyards host sports, games and animated discussions.
Scenes of the famous Remu Synagogue and the Alte Shul, an orphanage, a hospital,
the Jewish Community Council and several schools convey the vitality of this age-old Jewish community.
