My Swiss friend Claudio made a documentary film with 6 of his students a year ago about Laci Bacsi, Lazslo Somogyi Singer, a Hungarian survivor of the Holocaust who fled to Switzerland in 1956. Arriving surviving as a child in a labour camp in Austria, he returns to Hungary only to be persecuted for coming from a capitalist family. We viewed the film in the back room of unofficial Jewish cultural centre Spinoza. I have avoided Holocaust films my entire life. Visiting Auschwitz once was enough for a lifetime. I have never even seen Schindler's List. I do not know why, but I was choked up with tears rolling down my face through the entire 65 minutes. Luckily Tibi Bacsi was on hand and helped cheer us up afterwards with his jokes and piano playing. Tibi met Laci Bacsi during the filming and did not know that he had died last year at 82 without having seen the final product. I gave Tibi my postcard about the film. When the filmmaker discovered I had given my card away he said, "I did not realise you were such a good man." Neither did I. The film has now entered international competition, and is coming soon to Hungary for release to schools and other cultural institutes.
