Contents/Summary

Summary
A quest in East Germany, where the Jew Feivusch Schwarz, whom his family thought was dead, forged a new identity after the war. A missed meeting in 1945 splits a family into two. The director's grandmother decides to drift away from the place of her catastrophe to a new Jewish state while her brother Feiv'ke chooses to change his name and stay in the place where he was once a prisoner. Following the choices made by a brother and sister, the director finds herself on a journey between Israel and Eastern Germany, between past and present, victims and victimizers.
