Echoes From A Ghost Minyan is a 1998 documentary film about the once vibrant Jewish community of South Philadelphia.

Synopsis

On February 22, 1882, the S.S. Illinois docked at the foot of Federal Street on the Delaware River in South Philadelphia. Among the passengers on board were 225 European Jewish refugees, most of whom settled nearby. By the close of World War I, a little over 40 years later, South Philadelphia was home to over 100,000 Jewish immigrants, making it the second largest Jewish neighborhood in the United States. However, the thriving community didn't last long. Soon after World War II, the Jews began moving to other parts of the city and surrounding suburbs. By the beginning of the 21st century, the Jewish community of South Philadelphia had almost completely vanished.

The Jewish protagonists in this documentary, so-called Yekkes, share memories of their childhood days in the Scheunenviertel and Berlin-Mitte, as they were growing up in the 1920s. They tell about their harrowing flight from Nazi Germany to Palestine in 1934. Chaja Florentin relates her experience of a subsequent return to postwar Germany to visit Berlin, which was very painful encounter for her. The emotional pinnacle of the film is reached with the joy and excitement that both women express when they are shown old historical photographs of the neighborhood streets where they grew up. To the final question in this filmed interview, of whether either woman would consider returning to Berlin for good, both answer with an emphatic no, stating on no uncertain terms that Israel is their home now. They express displeasure at many things in Israel, but they say that it is like a difficult child—one that cries all of the time, but one that you love unconditionally.
