  • Description: The Steven Spielberg Jewish Film Archive, at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, has become the depository for one of the world's largest collections of films about the Holocaust, that of the Ghetto Fighters' House, Museum of the Holocaust and the Resistance (Beit Lohamei Haghetaot). The Ghetto Fighters' House, located in northern Israel, was established by Holocaust survivors in 1949. It is among Israel's premier Shoah documentation centers, containing over a dozen large archival groups. According to the agreement between the two institutions, all the 35 mm and 16 mm prints in the Ghetto Fighters' House collection will henceforth be housed in the Spielberg Archive's new premises on Mount Scopus. The range of material in the collection is very wide, encompassing everything from comparatively recent feature film productions to unedited documentary fragments. This major deposit further consolidates the Spielberg Archive's position as a key resource for film documentation of the Holocaust.
