The Descendants Project

This documentary is the up close and personal account of two friends looking for the truth about their families past. In Germany and Poland, their journey becomes a raw and unapologetic discovery of how WWII inheritance impacts their friendship three generations later. Turning the tables on traditional ancestral research, Katinka and Michal seek out other 3rd and 4th generation "descendants" to discuss how WWII Holocaust history is relevant in their lives today. A profoundly personal story, The Descendants Project explores layers of remembrance beneath the surface of a friendship.
