Engaging musical history of Sephardic Jews from their Spanish expulsion and search for new homes across Europe and the Ottoman Empire until their return to the Israeli homeland. Narrated and sung in Ladino by Yehoram Gaon and beautifully filmed throughout international locations.
Can a language save your life? Yes it can, even an ancient one from the 15th century. Saved by Language tells the story of Moris Albahari, a Sephardic Jew from Sarajevo (born 1930), who spoke Ladino/Judeo-Spanish, his mother tongue, to survive the Holocaust. Moris used Ladino to communicate with an Italian Colonel who helped him escape to a Partizan refuge after he ran away from the train taking Yugoslavian Jews to Nazi death camps. By speaking in Ladino to a Spanish-speaking US pilot in 1944 he was able to survive and lead the pilot, along with his American and British colleagues, to a safe Partizan airport.
Fascinating documentation of the Sephardic cuisine, which disappears over the years, just like the Ladino language, through the eyes of a director who documented her grandmother, cooking Ladino: "I'm afraid this food is starting to disappear. I want to teach my granddaughters to cook, but they have no time."
Uplifting account of survival and continuation from renowned Ladino singer and her Bosnian heritage.
