Left-wingers are vilified as \u203aNazis\u2039, Jewish anti-fascists as \u203atraitors\u2039\u00ab, the appeal of the organisers of a conference titled \u00bbIn the Time of the Slanderers\u00ab stated \u2013 in reference to a poem by the Austrian writer Erich Fried: On 10\u00a0February 2018, German, Israeli, British, and US academics, publicists, artists, and political activists met in Berlin and analysed in the presence of about 250\u00a0visitors the ideological instrumentalisation of Jews, Judaism and the Jewish catastrophe for the purpose of legitimising right-wing power politics, anti-communism, historical revisionism and (anti-Muslim) racism. The conference was hosted by the Projekt Kritische Aufkl\u00e4rung (Project Critical Enlightenment)\u00a0\u2013 an association committed to the critique of ideology that was launched by German and Israeli Marxists in the summer of 2017.<\/p>\n<p>Already in the early 1980s, Erich Fried had denounced the stigmatisation of Jewish leftists as \u00bbred antisemites\u00ab by \u00bbspokesmen of the West\u00ab. What began at that time with angry polemics has today grown into an entire complex of smear campaigns and sanctions\u00a0\u2013 including against Holocaust survivors and their descendants \u2013 initiated by the established parties and the Alternative for Germany (AfD), by neoconservative \u00bbanti-Germans\u00ab, by \u00bbanti-nationals\u00ab and Christian fundamentalists, and propagated by the established media.<\/p>\n<p>The majority of the German left are at best silent on these alarming developments, thus committing a betrayal that amounts to a capitulation to German great power aspirations, NATO\u2019s bellicose regime change policy and murderous aggression against refugees and other migrants. What is more, it aids the promotion of irrational explanatory models of the world that postulate a \u00bbclash of civilisations\u00ab and antisemitism as well as Islamophobia. \u00bbNot least\u00ab, argues the Projekt Kritische Aufkl\u00e4rung, \u00bbthe inflationary use of antisemitism accusations and the hollowing-out and reification of the categorical imperative \u203aNever again!\u2039 that accompany this are unmistakable signs of the liquidation of the left\u2019s fundamental opposition and the gains of historical materialism.\u00ab<\/p>\n<p>The film presents highlights and central theses of the conference. This is supplemented by interviews, extensive research material, photos and videos, including previously unpublished footage of a reading by Erich Fried from 1988. The film is dedicated to the musician and Auschwitz survivor Esther Bejarano, who contributed a greeting message and passed away on 10 July 2021 at the age of 96.<\/p>\n<p><strong>102\u00a0minutes, German\/English with subtitles<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>\u00a9\u00a02021 Dror Dayan and Susann Witt-Stahl<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Dror Dayan<\/strong>, born in Jerusalem in 1981, is filmmaker, film scholar and activist.
