The Ohel Leah Synagogue Charity WELCOME Dear Festival Supporters
Co-presenter 1199 t h Generously supported by The Ohel Leah Synagogue Charity WELCOME Dear Festival Supporters, It is an honor and a pleasure to welcome you to another edition of the Hong Kong Jewish Festival, our 19th edition, and my first as Chair. 2018 saw the departure of our Chair Debby Amias, as well as several Board members whom we thank for their significant contribution and dedication. As one door closes, another opens and luckily, our Board has fortunately seen numerous new faces ensuring a smooth transition. With the generous support and help of our Donors, we are able to bring to Hong Kong a comprehensive selection of the best Jewish themed features and documentaries which should entertain, educate and inform. This year we bring you exciting new partnerships as well as VIPs and guests from abroad that will enhance and bring a whole new flavour to the festival. My appreciation goes to the Asia Society Hong Kong Center, a prime cultural venue; the members of the Festival’s Board; the Viewing Committee, as well as Nicole Izsak, our Festival Producer. Looking forward to seeing you throughout the Festival. Eli Bitan HKJFF Chairman 3 Message from the Israeli Chamber of Commerce Hong Kong My heartiest congratulations on the 19th Anniversary of the Hong Kong Jewish Film Festival!

Our loyalties lie first and foremost with our members, acting as their voice in advising the Israeli Government in matters affecting businesses and the economy, providing members with business information and opportunities, and facilitating networking through a variety of Chamber activities. -

Chapter 4 Three Villages Under the Russian-American Company
Chapter 4 Three Villages Under the Russian-American Company n the years following Cook’s voyage, people living in Makushin, Kashega, and Biorka found their options reduced as trade in I Russian America was soon dominated by the activities of Grigorii I. Shelikhov, a man with voracious interest in the wealth of the territory and a vision of permanent settlements.1 In 1781 he and two other merchants had formed a company that gradually absorbed and drove out smaller competitors while creating powerful allies in Russia. In 1790 he hired the legendary Alexander Baranov, who, forced to the wall by a series of business failures, reluctantly agreed to Shelikhov’s persistent overtures. Baranov sailed from Okhotsk on the Three Saints for the settlement Shelikhov had founded on Kodiak in 1784. Approaching Unalaska Island, the vessel Grigorii I. Shelikhov anchored in Kashega Bay to replenish its water supply. An early October http://en.wikipedia. storm blew in, however, and cornered the vessel, placing it in imminent org/wiki/Grigory_ Shelekhov#mediaviewer/ danger. The crew managed to unload a portion of the cargo during low File:Grigory_Shelikov.jpg tide before the vessel capsized during the night of October 6, stranding everyone for the winter. Baranov’s account of Unalaska in general and Kashega in particular portrayed a demoralized and innervated population. Along with other negative pronouncements, Baranov wrote: —“in general they are all lazy and untidy” —“their yurts are poor and cold” —“they have no fires…except in their oil lamps” —they seldom cook anything —they rarely wear shoes —“they observe no religious laws” —“they know nothing of their origin” —they rarely share food with each other 2 —“where there are no Russians…they make no effort at all” CHAPTER 4: Three villaGES under THE RUSSIAN-American CHAPTER Compan TITLEY 45 His account was strikingly different from those made by Cook’s expedition. -
