Wikipédia
Alfred Schreyer (en yiddish אלפרעד שרייער, né le 8 mai 1922 à Drohobytch dans la voïvodie de Lwów, alors en Pologne, aujourd’hui oblast de Lviv en Ukraine) est un violoniste, chanteur et militant culturel juif polonais. À l'heure actuelle, il est le dernier juif de la ville survivant de la Shoah à Drohobytch et le dernier élève survivant de Bruno Schulz.
Il entretient sa mémoire, notamment en participant régulièrement au Festival Bruno Schulz de Drohobytch.

“Alfred Screyer from Drohobycz” a documentary directed and co-written by Marcin Gizycki.
This lyrical film is the story of the extraordinary life of Alfred Schreyer, the last Jew of Drohobycz, Ukraine, a 90+ years old Holocaust survivor. In his lifetime, Drohobycz has been part of Poland, a German occupied territory, the Soviet Union, and the Ukraine. He is also a wonderful musician, a singer, and superb interpreter of Polish pre-war popular songs that sound like Jewish tango. Mr. Schreyer guides us around Drohobycz, a town where Bruno Schulz, the famous writer and artist (and Mr. Schreyer’s high school teacher), also lived. The film is a requiem for Drohobycz, the town as it used to be before the German occupation and Communist rule changed it irretrievably. Our protagonist takes us to the backstreets and graveyards – sites where you can discern the traces of the spirit of the former multicultural town.
