Christa Whitney will present a work-in-progress version of Ver Vet Blaybn? Who Will Remain?, an hour-long documentary following Israeli actress Hadas Kalderon as she retraces the extraordinary life journey of her grandfather, the renowned Yiddish writer Avrom Sutzkever. Drawing on archival footage, never-before-seen home videos, and interviews from the Yiddish Book Center's Wexler Oral History Project, Ver Vet Blaybn? Who Will Remain? is a personal and poetic tribute to one of our greatest and most courageous Yiddish writers.

There is both an accessible elevator and gender-neutral restroom on the first and second floor. If you have a disability that requires an accommodation, contact judaicstudies@umich.edu or 734-763-9047.
