Safta’s Story
Two young sisters escape a death train during the Holocaust and embark on a perilous journey across Eastern Europe. Through their imaginative eyes, survival blurs with fantasy and myth. Safta’s Story is a visually inventive exploration of resilience, family, and the power of storytelling. Inspired by real testimony.
