“The Hangman”:听On Adolf Eichmann鈥檚 Executioner 鈥 Screening & Conversation with Director Netalie Braun
The Stroum Center for Jewish Studies presents a screening and discussion of the 2010 documentary 鈥淭he Hangman (Hatalyan),鈥 which profiles Shalom Nagar, the Yemenite Jew who guarded, and eventually executed, Nazi war criminal Adolf Eichmann. In spite of Eichmann鈥檚 role as a key organizer of the Holocaust, Nagar didn鈥檛 wish to execute him.
The film reflects on the assignment of the executioner role to Nagar as illuminating the position of Mizrahi Jews in Holocaust memory in Israel. Nagar鈥檚 reflections on this experience, and on the meaning of capital punishment even in the face of unforgivable acts, raises pressing questions about crime and punishment in our time.
Following a screening of the 60-minute documentary, faculty member Smadar Ben-Natan will discuss the film with its director, Netalie Braun, and facilitate a Q&A.
