Synopsis

“I’ve got it… I am H I Jew positive,” a young Polish student summed up his feelings when he found out he was Jewish. Stories like that abound in Poland as many people have discovered that their parents kept their true identity hidden from them – the fact they were Jewish, second and third-generation to Holocaust survivors. The film follows 4 such stories over the course of 15 years.
