Silence

NEW DOCS

Haunting and powerful, this short animated piece lets Tana recount her own terrible story as a child of the Holocaust. Against the moving narration swirls a childhood dream of surreal images, like woodcuts rising wraithlike out of memories, until rescue and sanctuary in Sweden. The images bloom in color and music to release the memories held too long inside, in silence.
