The Holocaust in Ukraine: Podhorodce | Roam Your Roots

Previously: Stryi: Jewish Roots in Western Ukraine    • Stryi: Jewish Roots in Western Ukrain...   This was a hard video to make, and I really hope I did the history and the emotional memory justice. In 1941, Pieter Menten, a Dutch art collector who had business partners around Lviv, traveled to Podhorodce with the intention of taking revenge on his business partner, Isaac Pistiner, after a business deal gone wrong. His idea of revenge was to kill the Jewish population of Podhorodce in Isaac's back yard. And that is what he did. With the assistance of Yad Vashem testimony pages and survivor memory, we know Yair's great-great grandparents, Meilech and Taube Halpern, were among those killed in Podhorodce. The location of the original mass grave, before the bodies were exhumed, today rests behind a cultural museum and a new hotel. We were invited into the museum for tea, and to see the hotel next door. While the hosts were very gracious, the whole situation unsettled us just a little. The documentary clip is an excerpt from RTE's 'Menten Affair'. --- Instagram: @roamyourroots   / roamyourroots     / roamyourroots   [email protected]
