Life Is Strange is a 2012 American documentary film of interviews giving an oral history portrait of the life of pre-World War II European Jews by filmmaker Isaac Hertz.

Aumann, Alain Jakubowicz, Sammy Grundwerg, Ron Samuels, Zachary Cirino, Chaim Hertz, Arianne Brown, Artem Zuev and Jean-Michel Guirao.

The film is 96 minutes long and explores pre-war Yiddish culture and the experience of living in a world very different from what it was like in the past. It has received criticism for the unclear reasoning behind the assortment of people interviewed.
