Overview

For more than 50 years, Auschwitz survivor Herbert Heller kept his memories of the Holocaust secret — even from his wife and children. But when he meets Abbey, a troubled teen dealing with her own unspoken pain, Herbert decides it’s time to talk and finally open his heart. “Beautiful performances from Stephen Lang (Avatar) and Elsie Fisher (Eighth Grade) anchor a tale of personal strength and sacrifice in this cinematic masterpiece inspired by true events about a man harboring a haunting secret as a Holocaust survivor… an inspiring story about the transformative power of friendship and healing.” –Miami Jewish Film Festival

Lead support for this screening was provided by Sid and Linda Moskowitz.
