Lieba Perla

During the Nazi regime, Dr. Josef Mengele conducted "scientific" experiments on and shot "research" footage of a Hungarian Jewish family of dwarfs. Fifty years later, Hannelore Witkofski, a "short-statured" woman born in post-war Germany, befriends the only surviving family member, Perla, an actress, now living in Israel. Perla asks Hannelore to search Germany for a lost film in which Mengele displays her entire family naked. Hannelore reports back to Perla on her search, calling and writing from Auschwitz, the Max Planck Institute, and the home of one of Mengele's photographers. An astounding, intimate, loving story of past horror and present-day renewal.
