synopsis

In 1934, Stalin created an independent state for communist Jews from the Soviet Union and from abroad. It became home to families from Ukraine, France, Brooklyn ... After the purges and auto-da-fés that took place in the 20th century, what remains of the land - its culture, its language - is on the brink of oblivion. An intimate and dark portrait of Birobidzhan. A final inventory before disappearance?
