Documentary captures vibrancy of community lost to Holocaust

Three Minutes: A Lengthening, is a haunting documentary. A film about a film, it focuses on three minutes of home movie footage shot in August 1938 of the largely Jewish inhabitants of a small Polish town north of Warsaw – most of whom would eventually perish at the hands of the Nazis. Tom Brook speaks to Glenn Kurtz, whose grandfather captured the vibrancy of the Jewish community on his 60-millimetre camera more than eighty years ago.
