My Father’s Secrets

France, Belgium 2021 | 74 minutes | French | Hebrew, English subtitles

1960s Belgium. Michel and his brother Charly live a happy childhood. Their father, silent and discreet, does not reveal his past.  The brothers imagine him as a great adventurer or treasure hunter…. But what is he hiding? Veteran filmmaker Véra Belmont presents a moving adaptation to Michel Kichka’s graphic novel, telling of the struggles of first and second-generation Holocaust survivors. “The book, like the film, is a story of trauma and resilience.  It carries a universal message and is a great lesson for today’s youth” Michel Kichka.
