Contemporary Polish cinema is explored through its engagement with the complex histories of violence against Jewish communities during the Holocaust. The book delves into how films reframe the uncomfortable legacies of this violence, utilizing theories such as Derridean hauntology and Levinasian ethics. It offers innovative analyses of cinematic representations that confront evasion and formlessness in collective memory, providing a thought-provoking examination of how art engages with difficult historical truths.
