Poland, 1990 – American music journalist Ruth takes her father Edek, a Holocaust survivor, on a journey to his childhood haunts, hoping to make sense of her family’s troubled past. When Edek, reluctant to face his trauma, undermines their trip with his unpredictable and more eccentric than usual demeanor, Ruth is forced to challenge him and the values with which he raised her.

“Stephen Fry and Lena Dunham are the charismatic double act you never knew you needed in this low-key tearjerker about repressed grief and family tensions.” ~ Kevin Maher, Times UK
