“Rare home movie footage shot in Poland in 1938 becomes a priceless historical artifact, documenting people and places obliterated by the Holocaust in Dutch writer-director Bianca Stigter’s haunting and provocative documentary essay “THREE MINUTES – A LENGTHENING.” – Alissa Simon, Variety

 

“In THREE MINUTES – A LENGTHENING, Bianca Stigter turns a few minutes of amateurish film Kurtz shot on his trip — no more than an American tourist’s souvenir of a vacation — into an eloquent meditation on loss, memory and how film can shape them.” – Caryn James, The Hollywood Reporter
