Atlanta Jewish Film Festival: The Property

A grieving Israeli grandmother reluctantly travels with her granddaughter to Warsaw’s wintry streets to reclaim property lost during the war, exhuming buried memories and hidden truths. Struggling with the recent loss of her son, fiercely proud Regina (veteran comic actress Rivka Michaeli) bears the emotional weight of the trip, while independent Mika (Sharon Strimban) longs to learn her family history. As Mika unexpectedly bonds with a charming Polish tour guide (Piotr Pacek), Regina reconnects with old flame Roman (Andrzej Seweryn). What begins as a quest to reclaim a family flat becomes a deep journey of self-discovery and reconciliation. Dana Modan’s touching adaptation of her sister Rutu Modan’s award-winning graphic novel is nominated for four Israeli Academy Awards, including Best Screenplay.
