Ho avuto modo di ascolare questo canto nella PINKAS Sinagoga a Praga. Sulle pareti migliaia di nomi dei morti di Terezinstadt. La maggior parte bambini. El Mahle Rahmim ti esplode dentro, doloroso ed infinito. Non riusciremo mai a comprendere quanto dolore è stato sopportato, quanta pena e sofferenza causata a persone innocenti.

E non bisogna dimenticare...mai!!!

Grazie per questo video. Ricordo sempre il film, bellissimo. Ma soprattutto le scene finali e questo canto strguggente, disperato, straziante. Grazie ancora...

I'll never forget this film. It seemed at first that this family would be immune from persecution. But I always felt that, although they seemd protected by the walls of their compund, that Micole knew, eventually, that they would all be doomed. It was good at the end that they showed not only where the Bassanis lived, but also the Estate where Micole lived, and that despite the fact it was the Summer following their deporation, they showed the garden and the tennis court barren and deserted.

I saw the film years ago and could never forget this masterful "kel male rahamim" by Cantor Shalom Katz. Marvelous. I'm so glad I found it here.

If you are a survivor, or lost family, El Malei Rachamim go's right through your body and is very painful.

Shalom Katz did a beautiful job.

I come back to this film again and again. It is de Sica's last, and it is such a masterpiece. The purity of concept is wonderful--this world of civilized and decent people surrounded by savages who have gained the upper hand--the very people that civilization was constructed to keep in their holes. God bless the Jewish people and keep them safe from now until the end of time!

@dionisio454 I respect the noble tradition of cosmopolitan Jewish intellectuals who demand idealistic standards of behavour especially from the Jewish state. But I would say this: they do not have to deal with dirty matters of life, death and national survival. They do not deal with a hostile international community and embittered public opinion in Israel towards enemies who very likely will never make peace and foreigners who send aid to Arab fighters and harp and criticize Israeli fighters.

@mc0558 I totally agree with everything you said. It is comforting to see that there is finally someone who is trying to analyse objectively the situation and to depassionate the debate.

[mc0558]

@LysFlower13 I do support Israel, and I too demand a freeze on new settlements. I believe it is in Israel's own interest to pursue a peace settlement based on the two state formula. However I feel that the precise form of that state at the periphery can be ironed out over time. I think also that Jew can live in Palestine the way Palestinians live in the Jewish homeland.
