BEYLE: The Artist and Her Legacy
2019, English. Directed by Christa Whitney & Liz Walber.
A new documentary film explores the life and legacy of Yiddish activist and artist Beyle Schaechter-Gottesman
Beyle Schaechter-Gottesman was a woman whose life and work bridged the old world with the new. Following in the footsteps of her activist father and folk singer mother, she dedicated her life to preserving and transmitting Yiddish language and culture. Her influence reached across continents until her death in 2013, and lives on in a new generation. "BEYLE: The Artist and Her Legacy" tells the story of Beyle’s rich life through archival recordings along with newly recorded oral history interviews with family, friends, and colleagues – in both English and in Yiddish. In keeping with Beyle’s multimedia artistic practice, we have translated her paintings and sketches into whimsical animations, and weaved her story through the tradition of oral history and into a film.
