Married with a Star
A Jewish Wedding in Amsterdam in 1942
33 minutes, 1991
English voice-over
Eleven minutes of rare film footage of a Jewish wedding that took place in Nazi-occupied Amsterdam in 1942 was recently discovered and entrusted to Willy Lindwer to produce this film.
This documentary tells the touching story of the ill-fated couple and many of the wedding guests. Only a handful survived the war, one of whom was an 8-year old boy who attended the wedding with his parents. He relates his feelings on seeing them and the others again after so many years.
Produced by AVA Productions (Netherlands).
