"the road to Krasnostav"
In May 2015 the descendants of Jews from Krasnostav went on a mission to Ukraine in search of their family history. The trail brought the group to the war memorials, mass graves and Jewish cemeteries in and around Krasnostav, Izyaslav, Berezdov, Shepetovka, Slavuta, and Koretz.
Those monuments and graves, surrounded by picturesque landscapes, are the only remnant of the former Jewish settlements.
Personal stories captured in the film, reminiscences of eyewitnesses who were children at the start of the war, and tales that post-war children heard from their parents illustrate the circumstances of those tragic events.
