The film explores two lives divided by Auschwitz. Hans Jürgen Höss, son of the camp’s infamous commandant, confronts the dark legacy of his father’s crimes. Auschwitz survivor Anita Lasker-Wallfisch, once a prisoner in the shadow of the Höss family villa, shares her story. Together, they and their children grapple with inherited guilt and trauma in a deeply intimate setting.
Maya, a psychotherapist and author, will share her insights on Holocaust legacies in an interview with Museum Director Marc Cave.
