Andrei Cohn about the film:
“Like every other form of discrimination, anti-Semitism is repulsive, and this is why it intrigues me how a part of the Jewish population could have gone from being the victim to being an aggressor. How is it psychologically possible for an individual persecuted in the place where he was born to make an exodus at the end of which he recreates the same social relations toward a different community that made him leave in the first place? Is not this fateful vicious circle simple proof of the fact that prior to the differences of belonging to a particular community, there are more things that unite us than separate us?”,
