"I discovered that the Drancy Camp still existed while filming my previous documentary "Rivka's Tribe". I was convinced that it had been destroyed more than half a century ago. When I got there, I was overwhelmed to see that the old camp intact and that people were living in this pace haunted by grief." Her quest for answers lasted three years.
