The November 1938 “Night of Broken Glass” shattered
two centuries of Germans and Jews living side by side
in the village of Freudental, near Stuttgart. A personal journey into the history of a family, which survived and did not survive the Holocaust, interrogates whether today being both German and Jewish means belonging nowhere.

The film uses footage shot in many locations in Germany,

in Auschwitz, and in Toronto. It also includes archival

footage, mainly from the German Federal Archive, family

photos and documents.
