STALIN`S FORGOTTEN ZION deals with the absurd fate of tens of thousands of Russian, but also American, German, and Argentinean Jews who were attracted in the thirties of the last century by promises of Stalin that a future of Zion would be in faraway Siberia. After the fall of the Soviet Union thousands of Jews left for Israel and some remained in Siberia. Everywhere they still wonder where is home, in Israel or in Siberia?
