Four Seasons Lodge
Director: Andrew Jacobs
Country: U.S., 2008
Duration: 96 min.
Language: English
Four Seasons Lodge follows a group of Holocaust survivors during what might be their
final summer together at a bungalow colony in the Catskill mountains. Directed by
New York Times journalist Andrew Jacobs, with beautiful cinematography by a team of
filmmakers including Albert Maysles, the film explores the power of friendship and the
drive to find joy despite painful memories. It is a counter intuitive Holocaust documen-
tary: a fusion of ribald humor, stories of unimaginable loss, the last of the Borscht Belt
crooners, and a family made entirely of friends and lovers. The characters dance, flirt,
and fight as the fate of their community hangs in the balance.
