I am very impressed, well put together, kept me interested and wanting to know more, I did not want it to end there is so much more to come, you have a high standard to work to now. Only criticism the text and credits moved too fast, well for me to read anyway.

Wonderful and very moving. Your film really makes me want to know so much more about your grandmother and family story....the shots of the stolpersteines had a lot more Levy names..who are they, and what is their stories? My own grandmother (+ her husband, my grandfather & my mother-aged 6 months) escaped from Berlin to the UK in 1936.
