Description
Spanning the turbulent years 1919 to 1945, this vivid and moving saga of love and war - by France's most celebrated actress - tells the story of two Jewish families who have fled persecution to settle in Paris shortly after the Russian Revolution. They work in the garment industry as furriers, speak Yiddish, and have nightmares, but are determined to forget the past and build a new life for their children. The life the children become caught up in is the exotic make-believe world of theatre and costume design and the excitement of the growing fiIm industry. But as the shadow of Fascism falls over Europe and war looms, their hard-won freedom becomes threatened by ominous echoes from their parents'past.
