This film reveals the painful relationship between my 87-year-old mother and me, her son, who has suffered all his life from the silence that dominated our family. My mother’s silence always stood between us. It concealed secrets concerning our family story, during the Holocaust, and created a sense of distance and anger within me. The film is a first and last attempt to break this silence and it constitutes a fascinating emotional document of the relationship between mother and child, about memory, guilt and old age set against the backdrop of WWII and the effect it had on the lives of the survivors and their children.
