Yoel是大屠殺事件資深研究員,他正在調查二戰尾聲在蘭斯多夫村發生的猶太人屠殺慘案,為了這件事,他與奧地利有力人士在打官司。案發當地的地主是一個有權有勢的實業家家族,他們正打算在當地興建房地產。Yoel懷疑他們的目的是為了湮滅當年事件,但苦於找不到證據來阻止他們的作為。
調查過程中,Yoel檢查大屠殺生還者的機密證詞,驚訝地發現其中居然包括母親的證詞,她在證詞裡坦誠過去的秘密。Yoel同時進行私人及科學調查,但毫無進展。身為歷史學家,他決心找出真相,即便賠上自己的人生與事業也在所不惜。

HA’EDUT
Language: Hebrew, German, English, Yiddish
Yoel, a senior Holocaust researcher, is in the midst of a widely covered legal battle with powerful forces in Austria, concerning a brutal massacre of Jews that took place toward the end of WWII in the village of Lendsdorf. An influential family of industrialists on whose land the murder took place, is planning to build a real estate project on the very same land. Yoel suspects that their aim is to bury the affair for good, but has trouble finding the conclusive evidence that would stop the project.
While investigating the incident Yoel examines classified testimonies of Holocaust survivors, and to his shock and surprise he finds a testimony given by his mother, a testimony he didn’t know existed. In her testimony she confesses to a substantial secret from her past. Yoel, who’s conducting a double-investigation, personal and scientific, is trapped between walls of silence.
As a historian with an unshakeable commitment to the truth, he decides to continue his investigations even at the cost of ruining his personal and professional life.
