MONUMENT: A new documentary about the stories we leave behind, and who hears them.
Click to Donate
MONUMENT is a feature-length documentary about how and why we have to pass on the most difficult parts of our family stories. My grandma was never able to express her trauma to me verbally, but left a memorial in her hometown in hopes that I would someday visit it.
This film is both my story– what happened on my first trip to the memorial– and the story of the people I met in Hungary who are working to ensure that the darkest chapter of their nation's past isn't erased or forgotten.
Monument is dedicated to them: the tour guides, historians, teachers, archivists, and descendants of survivors passionately engaged in keeping the memory of the Holocaust alive, to pass on its urgent lessons for today.
Monument is currently in post-production, and is on schedule to be completed in early 2023. Your donation is tax-deductible thanks to our fiscal sponsor, From The Heart Productions. Thank you so much for your support.
