A Film by Shosh  Shlam 
(Israel, 2001, 52 Minutes, Color, Hebrew, English subtitles)

The wall of silence still remains for some Holocaust survivors.

The elderly men and women in this film were hospitalized in Israeli mental institutions for over thirty years. They do not remember the Holocaust – they live it. Inner time rule their life. In 1998, they were relocated to a hostel, the first of it's kind for Holocaust survivors in the world.

The film has won many awards in Film Festivals around the world and had a powerful impact on viewers, many of whom learned for the first time about the existence and fate of these survivors in their midst.
