This story cannot fail to touch you, dear viewer. It is about how the war ended 75 years ago, but people are still being carried away to this day and their fates are being determined by its merciless hand. According to the author, it touches each of us who live in the fast-paced 21st century.
We decided to show you a movie about the fate that unexpectedly and fatally manifested itself in the life of Arie Perel.
On April 24, 2018, a phone call rang in Arieh's home. "We are calling you from Warsaw, from the Museum of the History of Polish Jews," he heard on the other end of the phone receiver. - "We want to inform you, Arie, that you were found by your brother, and you were adopted in 1947 in Wroclaw.
And what he didn't realize was...
His brother Adam has been searching for him for 72 years since the war.
The film was released in Israel in May of 2019.

May the memory of all the victims of this terrible machine of War, which does not spare people even in our days, be bright!
