Atlanta Jewish Film Festival – My Neighbor Adolf – Virtual

A solitary Polish Holocaust survivor in a South American village suspects his imposing new neighbor is none other than der Führer himself, in this sly, bittersweet tragicomedy. Having lost his family to the Nazis, scarred Marek Polsky seeks postwar solace in the remote hillsides of 1960 Columbia, playing chess and tending his prized black roses. When a belligerent old German expat moves in next door, Marek suspects the secretive man is Adolf Hitler in hiding. To confirm his fears, he must first befriend, then trick his neighbor into revealing his past. Keeping audiences guessing until the end, veteran actors David Hayman and Udo Kier shine in this tender two-hander about sparring old strangers who find uneasy kinship in a personal search for reconciliation.
