“L’Dor V’Dor: Generation to Generation” is a new documentary made by the Tulsa Historical Society that tells the story of Tulsa’s Jewish community. This week, the Circle Cinema in Tulsa is showing the film.
“L’Dor V’Dor,” which means “from one generation to the next,” will show the history of that community from when it first moved to Indian Territory to when it still lives in Tulsa today, says Michelle Place, the executive director of the Tulsa Historical Society.
A documentary about Tulsa’s century-plus history, “Boomtown: An American Journey,” was made by the museum in 2015. It looked at the city from the time it was booming to when it went bust, and many people who live in the city gave it a good review.
Tulsa’s history: “They said, “We want more,” and what they meant was more documentaries about Tulsa’s history. I thought we could tell the stories of how we all got to Tulsa.
