DESCRIPTION
Our identity is defined on many levels, cultural heritage, religious heritage, historical heritage, place and time of birth. Miriam is the mother of five children, she comes from an assimilated Jewish family, at the age of twenty she joined a religious community, changing her name. A surprising fragment of the Łódź mosaic of cultures, as seen by Piotr Szczepański, showing that strong attachment to religion and history may go hand in hand with active participation in counterculture, and the Holocaust heritage with affirmation of life. The film was made based on a two-year observation of the entire family.
