The Man with a Smile

Documentary, 2023, tbd min.

My Jewish father, nearly succumbing to starvation and disease in the "Japanese camp," travels by Train through devastated Germany in March 1947. He feels only resentment and hatred towards the German people, until he sees a starving German girl. His journey is mirrored by a number of train travelers in the present, each traveler having a story about their own compassionate path to forgiveness.
