This 52 min. documentary film focuses on Jerri Zbiral, the daughter of a survivor of the Nazi destruction of the Czech village of Lidice. Although she was born after the war, and left the country as an infant, her mother's stories have had a profound effect on her life. It is a compelling story that addresses emotional issues that span generations. This award-winning film combines historic footage and contemporary interviews with survivors. The 50th anniversary of the massacre is a starting point for an ongoing personal exploration of the legacy of tragedy, relevant far beyond a World War II setting.
