This film presents a day in the life of a Jewish village before it disappears. SHTTL is the story of the inhabitants of a Yiddish Ukrainian village at the border of Poland, 24 hours before the Nazi invasion, known as Operation Barbarossa. Today, there are no such villages in existence. The production fully reconstructed a traditional “Shtetl” outside of Kyiv, which is planned to be turned into a museum. This is our history, our ancestors.
