Hannah Arendt's views on Jewish identity, the Israel-Palestine conflict, and authoritarian-totalitarian systems seem more relevant than ever. Together with biographer Thomas Meyer, this documentary takes us back to the time of her exile in Paris. It was there, on the banks of the Seine, that she laid the foundations for her later works, which would bring her international renown.
“A staggering achievement of craft and ambition. Kai Christiansen's vision lands with breathtaking precision.”
“Every frame feels alive. Hannah Arendt: Eine Jüdin im Pariser Exil is the rare release that takes its audience seriously.”
