Résumé

Pas de résumé français disponible.

This concert film documents the results of the historical reconstruction, then recording of the Chasidic songs Hungarian/Romanian composer Max/Miksa/Mihai Eisikovits wrote down in 1938-39 – phonetically, without knowing Yiddish, Hebrew or Aramaic.

"With the concert documentary After All the Dead Sing Again… matters are the other way around. The film sums up the results of a massive endeavour in historical restoration and reconstruction, then recording Elek became engaged with: that of the Chasidic songs Hungarian/Romanian composer Max/Miksa/Mihai Eisikovits wrote down in 1938-39 – purely phonetically, without knowing either Yiddish or Hebrew or Aramaic. Elek also published a massive tome with translations of the songs, including into English. The film moreover harks back to
To Speak the Unspeakable – The Message of Elie Wiesel (1996), tying one more knot into the massive weave that are her films – a tapestry of the 20th century as witnessed and remembered from an angle most particular and unique."
(Olaf Möller - IFFR International Film Festival Rotterdam)
