In June 2013, filmmaker Semyon Pinkhasov followed a group of visa recipient families, along with members of the Sousa Mendes family, as they embarked on a pilgrimage retracing their families' footsteps of 73 years earlier. They were 'searching for Sousa Mendes' - looking for traces and clues of a lost history in an effort to understand their personal pasts. Pinkhasov interweaves the testimonies of the 'searchers' with compelling documentary footage and insights from experts to tell this little-known story. Written by Anonymous See less
