Accompanied each time by a top Polish guide, Gusky made four trips through the Polish countryside, beyond the city ghettos and the sites of concentration camps, into remote villages where Jews had lived and worked for almost 1,000 years before the Holocaust. His book captures on film the austere landscapes and the remains of this once thriving Jewish culture in eastern Europe.
