On October 13th, students of the Warsaw Film School<\/strong> took part in the first workshop of the Bearers of Memory<\/em>programme, held in Warsaw within the framework of the European project Le Case di Mic\u00f2l<\/em>. The workshop was led by Ma\u0142gorzata Kosieniak<\/strong> and marked the beginning of an educational and reflective pathway focused on Holocaust memory.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The session opened with the screening of an animated short film created by Gabi Bania<\/strong>, a former student of the school. The animation visually interprets the poem Execution of Memory<\/em> by Jerzy Ficowski<\/strong>, taken from the collection Reading the Ashes<\/em>. Through symbolic and metaphorical language, the film addresses the \u201cdemons of the past\u201d and the difficulty \u2014 yet necessity \u2014 of confronting painful and distant histories.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

From this starting point, the workshop expanded into a broader discussion on the Shoah. Students reflected on what happened in Treblinka and Auschwitz<\/strong>, but also on the long history of Jewish presence in Poland and its fundamental contribution to Polish culture over nearly a thousand years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Particular attention was given to understanding why the Holocaust is considered one of the gravest crimes against humanity: the industrial nature of the killing process, the systematic dehumanisation of victims, and the involvement of the Nazi state apparatus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A central part of the workshop focused on emotions. Students openly shared feelings of compassion, anger, and helplessness. As emphasised during the discussion, these events are not abstract or distant: they took place in the same cities and spaces that we still inhabit today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The workshop concluded with a collective exploration of Jewish heritage in Warsaw and Poland<\/strong>, including traditions, language, cuisine, and everyday life.
More than a history lesson, the meeting became an experience of shared reflection, responsibility, and active memory.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
