Contents/Summary
- Summary
- Edie was in her late teens when she learnt that her mother, Lili Gardonyi, had abandoned a two-year-old daughter as she fled Hungary in 1956. Lili, now 83, has carried this trauma for 60 years, and it has had a profound impact on her life and that of her family. This observational documentary follows Edie’s efforts, across three continents, to uncover even more painful secrets from her mother’s past and to end her family’s cycle of abandonment. Lili provides a rare and powerful insight into the legacy of trauma and exile on three generations of women.
