Summary |
While these are the stories of Jewish people who were displaced by the Second World War, the film concentrates on the vibrant cultural and family life they experienced in their youth that ultimately was most influential in their lives. It explores the connection between old age and childhood, asking questions about what remains of childhood in our later years, as well as engaging interesting issues of self-identity, Jewish identity, and the struggle to make any sense of the experience. |
