Lies and Miracles: Childhood in a Siberian Labor Camp
Film discussion and Q&A featuring congregant George Landau
Tiburon resident and a member of Congregation Emanu-El, George Landau and his family spent several years as prisoners in the Soviet Union, first in a Siberian labor camp and later in Uzbekistan during World War II. In Lies and Miracles, a 40-minute documentary, Montara filmmaker, Nancy Margulies, interviews George, as well as family friend and fellow survivor Irenka Taurek, and uses archival footage and original art to tell the story of their profoundly life-altering experiences during a dark historic era. "It's a film about survival and finding miracles around very challenging times," explains Margulies, who is George's cousin.
