Crypto-Jews and the Search for Identity
Hosted By: Sousa Mendes Foundation
A new documentary film, “Between the Stone and the Flower: The Duality of the Conversos,” profiles the life and work of the renowned genealogist Genie Milgrom. After successfully tracing her Jewish roots to pre-Inquisition Spain and Portugal, she founded the Converso Genealogy Project. In this capacity, she helps other “crypto-Jews” or “conversos” to reclaim their Jewish roots and is now overseeing the vast international effort to digitize the Vatican’s Jewish records.
