ENDLICH TACHELES

TACHELES – THE HEART OF THE MATTER

Yaar considers himself to be the most un-Jewish Jew in the world. He loves Star Wars and computer games. He’s fed up with his father’s Holocaust stories. As an act of rebellion, he develops a computer game about retaliating Jews and humane Nazis. Then, his own family’s history turns his plans upside down.

TACHELES – THE HEART OF THE MATTER shows how the trauma of the survivors can even affect the third generation. The film asks the burning question from the perspective of a 21-old: What does Holocaust have to do with me today?
