520 "An experimental documentary portrait of Sandor
(Alexander) Lenard, a Hungarian medical doctor and distant
cousin of filmmaker Lynne Sachs. In 1938, Lenard, a writer
with a Jewish background, fled the Nazis to a safe haven
in Rome. Shortly thereafter, the U.S. Army Graves
Registration Service hired Lenard to reconstruct the bones,
small and large, of dead American soldiers. Eventually he
found himself in remotest Brazil where he embarked on the
translation of 'Winnie the Pooh' into Latin, an eccentric
task that catapulted him to brief world-wide fame. Sachs'
essay film uses personal letters, abstracted war imagery,
home movies, interviews, and a children's performance to
create an intimate meditation on the destructive power of
war"--cont.
