SINGING UP THE PAST

‘When our yearning for food became unbearable, we sang’

75 years after she learned and sang them, Holocaust survivor Guta Goldstein has kept alive a repertoire of songs from the Lódz ghetto that she continues to perform in private. The film charts the songs that sustained her through the ghetto, through Auschwitz and Bergen-Belsen, and which will be powerfully performed in the film by the wonderful Lódz Children's Choir. 

A film about memory, survival, and the power of music to sustain. To read more and to support the film, please visit our official website.


'The film is a joy, absolutely fantastic...an enormously interesting exploration of music, memory, and historical trauma.’ Test audience feedback
