Summary

A very short, sparse camera-track fragment from the Baia Mare / Siget session of 20 May 2013. Kerler asks about an image described as a labor camp and asks for a picture to be taken. The informant comments on something being carried, and Kerler refers to Purim players shown the day before.

Stretches

00:01–02:04

Kerler asks what an image or picture shows and is told it is a labor camp, and asks that a picture be taken. The informant remarks that something is being carried. Kerler then refers to the Purim players shown the day before and to the newest ones made, apparently by the interviewee or the person showing them. The material is fragmentary, and a single Russian line is heard.
