Book Description
The title means "little Jewish town." These shtetls were in Russia and Poland. The film shows life in the shtetl: the poverty, the means of livelihood, the merchants, the Schneider (tailor), etc. The homes were wooden, and whole shtetls could burn down. There are no shtetls today remaining in Europe. The Jews were rich in learning, and the Shul (synagogue) and praying were the basis of their lives. The teachers (melameds) were revered. The people spoke Yiddish, and they were big on humor then and still are. The Jewish people migrated to the East Side of N.Y. and brought their native shtetl customs with them.
