Synopsis

A search, a journey, a life’s dream fulfilled. Seventy-seven-year-old Holocaust survivor Alice Zuckerman never gave up hope she would find her family, lost after the Second World War. When scribbled notes on torn paper reveal clues to her past, Alice and her family reunite. Alice takes us on a moving journey through old Eastern Europe, a world that seemingly disappeared through Nazism and communism. Yet the world of Alice’s childhood remains vital in the hearts of the people she meets along the way.

Using film made at American prisons, Leuchter talked about his upbringing where his father was a corrections officer. Through his family associations, young Leuchter claimed he was able to witness an execution performed in an electric chair. Leuchter's impression of the event was that the electric chairs used by American prisons were unsafe and often ineffective. The event led him to design modifications to the device that were adopted by many American states.

Ce film est l'histoire de quatre femmes exceptionnelles, résistantes, prisonnières, idéalistes qui à la fin de leurs adolescences risquèrent leurs vies pour combattre l'occupant nazi. Ni juives, ni communistes, elles rejoignirent la résistance alors qu'elles auraient pu tranquillement vivre en sécurité. Dans les deux ans qui suivirent, elles furent arrêtées par la Gestapo et déportées à Buchenwald. Aujourd'hui elles sont devenues des leaders sociaux ou intellectuels.
