Description

“Welcome to Yiddishland” offers an upbeat, witty and timely exploration of a global community of artists who are rediscovering and revitalizing the endangered Yiddish language through their progressive and provocative creative works.


As we travel through Yiddishland — not a homeland but a heartland without borders — we journey across continents, from Melbourne to Berlin, New York to Haifa to meet the diverse array of individuals who find solace, identity, and inspiration within Yiddish language and culture.
