    • Synopsis
    • Some of the world’s last remaining Holocaust
      survivors with roots from all over Europe meet
      every week at Café Zelig in Munich. They get
      together to laugh and celebrate, to argue
      and discuss various topics, but they also hold
      moments of silence and mourning. Some of
      them, and some of their children, undertake
      a journey into their past, back to their old
      home country Poland. And they talk about the
      difficulties they had, and still have, finding their
      way back to life in Germany.
