"Far too important- and too moving- for anyone with a conscience to ignore. HIDING AND SEEKING succeeds so unexpectedly, and spectacularly, that it is arguably unique among Holocaust documentaries."
--Stuart Klawans, The Nation

"An adventure that's part road trip, part scavenger hunt and part philosophical inquiry. It's not to be missed - among the most important films you're likely to see this year."

***************************************************

From the directors of "A Life Apart: Hasidism in America", this award-winning documentary tells the dramatic and emotional story of a Jewish father who journeys with his two ultra-orthodox adult sons back to Poland to try to find the Christian farmers who hid their family from the Nazis. To his sons, like many offspring of Polish Holocaust survivors, this is a country whose people are incurably anti-Semitic and beyond redemption. His hope is to instill in his insulated and narrow-minded sons the power of interfaith tolerance and trust. A father's attempt teach his sons the perils of putting up walls to keep those they deem dangerous outside. After he introduces them to the Polish family who helped their grandfather during the Holocaust, they discover the value in building bridges.


In the course of telling its compelling and dramatic story, HIDING AND SEEKING explores the Holocaust's effect on faith in God as well as its impact on faith in our fellow human beings. It embeds these issues in a deeply personal inter-generational saga of survivors, their children, and their children's children. Filmed in Jerusalem, Brooklyn and Poland, the film focuses on the filmmaker's attempt to heal the wounds of the past by stopping the transmission of hatred from generation to generation.
