Stalags: Holocaust and Pornography in Israel
(Stalagim: Shoa ve pornographia re’ Israel)

Thursday, April 30, 9:15 PM at SIFF Cinema at the Uptown

During the early 1960s, as the horrors of Adolph Eichmann were revealed through shocking testimony in an Israeli courtroom, a new pulp lit emerged in Israel called stalags. These erotic pocketbooks, featuring buxom female SS officers, took the country by storm. Controversial and popular, stalags were condemned as porn. Ari Libsker's documentary reveals uncomfortable truths and asks what did the stalags really mean and what do they reveal about Israeli consciousness to this day?
