The Missing Tale
Synopsis
What happens when you grew up in a family that’s been silent about its past and you suddenly find a guide to your roots far away from home?
I started to discover my Eastern European identity in a once flourishing Jewish community in South India. But as I got to know better my newly found ‘Jewish grandmother’ SARAH, I realized that she’s also hiding secrets from me.
With the help of three wardens of memory – a Muslim tailor, a Synagogue keeper and a graffiti artist – I slowly became another warden of sweet memories and bitter stories of discrimination.
