THINGS. PLACES. YEARS.

The knowledge of Jewish Women. Absence and Presence. Vienna and London.

The documentary Things. Places. Years. collects interviews with Jewish women who were able to flee from National Socialist Vienna to London as children or adolescents. Their daughters and grandchildren also have their say in the film. The central theme is the experience of expulsion, emigration and the Holocaust. It is to be shown that this experience is passed on from generation to generation and how it continues to have an impact on the lives of young Jewish women – even today.
