Title: And Europe Will be Shocked
Creator: Yael Bartana
Date: 2007 - 2011
Synopsis: And Europe Will Be Stunned comprises three films: Mary Koszmary (Nightmares) (2007), Mur i wieża (Wall and Tower) (2009) and Zamach (Assassination) (2011). The films traverse a landscape scarred by the histories of competing nationalisms and militarisms, overflowing with the narratives of the Israeli settlement movement, Zionist dreams, antisemitism, the Holocaust and the Palestinian right of return. They revolve around the activities of the Jewish Renaissance Movement in Poland (JRMiP), a political group that calls for the return of 3,300,000 Jews to the land of their forefathers, led by a charismatic young leader, Sławomir Sierakowski.
