The Freedom Last But One – Landscapes of Otto Dov Kulka

Israel, Czech Republic 2018 | 65 minutes | German, Hebrew, Czech | Hebrew subtitles

For decades, Otto Dov Kulka has created a metaphorical world in diaries and tape recordings, a world that was long accessible only to himself. The film before us traces the inner landscapes of Otto Dov Kulka’s memory. Poetic and horrific, words and pictures blend together in the film – bearing witness to the burden, and the power, of surviving. His thinking and writing revolve around the question, “What does Auschwitz mean?” We delve deep into the world of Otto Dov Kulka, following his thoughts about the inexplicability of history.
