Dear Leah, Thank you so much for your kind words. No, I did not add the music and did not change anything else in the film, but left it as I found it in my late father's archive. I understood the passages in German and Yiddish, but, since I unfortunately do not speak Russian, I was also overwhelmed with the commentary. I think the commentary is by Czernowitz filmmaker Boris Dratva, the great film chronicler of "our" city, who has a remarkable YouTube channel:

Do you feel like attending a deferred film premiere after almost three decades? From the depths of the archives of my late father Julius Hauster, who passed away twenty years ago, I have brought VHS video cassette to light, had it digitized and uploaded it to our Ehpes blog: http://ehpes.com/blog1/?p=11068 Apparently, this film was made in 1992 with the participation and on behalf of Anna Barth's son. We see the extraordinary filmmaker Boris Dratva, the tireless film chronicler of "our" city of Czernowitz.

Edgar Hauster Czernowitzers... It is our friend Daniel Katz who brought the project "The Nazi Collaborator Monument Project • Nazi Collaborator Monuments in Romania" to my attention and it is Daniel who unswervingly represents our interests in front of the Romanian authorities. In this context I have posted the latest publications of FORWARD and www.info-sud-est.ro at our Ehpes blog: http://ehpes.com/blog1/?p=11080 Here you'll find for download the verdicts against the main war criminals, to take the wind out of the sails of the numerous Holocaust deniers in Romania. These insult us as anti-Romanians, while the war criminals are stylized as heroes of the Iron Guard. Let's contribute everything to erase the the names of the war criminals from the streetscape in Romania and elsewhere! Edgar Hauster Hi Bruce, Though my grandmother's monument in the Jewish cemetery of Galati Romania existed, it was in a horrible shape and I reconstructed it by hiring a local constructor who did the job in a few days. My grandmother died in 1947.
