Documentary on Jewish children who during WW II were hidden away and the people gave them refuge. Aviva Slesin has interviewed several of these hidden children, most of them now in their 60ies, and accompanies them some of them as they visit the places of their childhood. The film reveals very diverse experiences:
one man recalls the "very good times" he spent in a large Dutch family; another is shocked as he finds out that the armoire in which he was hidden is still in his recuers appartment; a woman describes the horrible time she spend with a uncle whom she barely knew and who badly mistreated her.
The film also mentions the problems that arose when the parents appeared to recollect their estranged children.
In her commentary Slesin speaks of a "trauma of gratitude" that these people still suffer from today.
