OMA & BELLA
Dir. Alexa Karolinski (75min, Germany/USA, 2011)
German with English Subtitles
Documentary
Adas Israel, 2850 Quebec Street NW
Regina Karolinski (Oma) and Bella Katz
have been friends since childhood. They share recipes, an apartment in
Berlin and a common past as Holocaust survivors. Remaining in Germany
after the war, it is the food they cook—remembered from their shared
childhood—that bonds them. Filmmaker Alexa Karolinski,
Oma’s granddaughter, creates a loving portrait of two octogenarians:
their stories of survival, their lively sense of humor, and their
undying fondness for a good Jewish meal.
