Remembering Means Living, the film promoted here by an illustration of a menorah against a hazy burial ground, was produced by the Studio for Documentary Film, one of several state-run studios run by the Deutsche Film Aktiengesellschaft (DEFA), a film company founded in East Germany (the GDR) in 1946, the year after the end of World War II. In the film, Róza Berger-Fiedler, a director, producer, and the daughter of Polish-born Jews, traces on a very personal level the cultural and historical role of the Jews of Berlin 50 years after Kristallnacht (the Night of Broken Glass).
