The
title of the film THE FIGHTERS OF THE GHETTO is derived from the
name of a most unusual kibbutz in Israel, whose members are Holocaust
survivors. On reaching Israel from various camps and forests where
they were partisans, bound by their experiences, they felt the need
to stay together.
As
was the custom during the austere immediate post-war years, on setting
up a new kibbutz people could afford only two brick structures,
a children's home and a cow-shed, whereas everything else was housed
in tents. The members of the Fighters of the Ghetto Kibbutz have
built a third brick structure to house all the Holocaust memorabilia
that each of them brought from Europe.
