It was decided to visit the Dagestani Jews back in the summer. Simply because it was interesting to see how the Jewish community of Derbent lives. Today it is small, but has a great history. Those who stayed recently built a synagogue, and those who left literally "pray" to David Davydov, the caretaker of the old Jewish cemetery. Without him, who would look after the graves of their ancestors? David Abramovich agreed to an interview only on the condition that the local rabbi would give the go-ahead. In this sense, the Jewish community of Derbent has a strict vertical of power. Especially after what happened in October. The war in the Middle East had an immediate impact on the Caucasus. The wave of anti-Jewish sentiment in Islamic Dagestan with the pogrom at the Makhachkala airport and the search for Jewish refugees "locked" the Jews in their homes. An unspoken order appeared - not to communicate with journalists. However, the filming of the movie had been agreed upon long before the recent events. Therefore, we managed to get the go-ahead for filming upon arrival in Derbent. On condition: "no politics".
