Treasure
A tragicomic road trip set in 1990s Poland in which Lena Dunham plays an American music journalist who journeys with her father (Stephen Fry), a charmingly stubborn Holocaust survivor, to his homeland.
While she is eager to make sense of her family’s past, her father embarks on the trip with his own agenda. This emotional, funny culture clash of two New Yorkers exploring post-socialist Poland is a powerful example of how reconnecting with family and the past can be an unexpected treasure.
“Fry and Dunham endow their scenes with a brick-by-brick specificity that brings their characters to life.” ~David Ehrlich, IndieWire
“At times, it plays more like a sitcom than a story about the legacy of the death camps. Thankfully, it still provides probing insight into everything from casual anti-semitism to the plague of historical forgetfulness.” ~Geoffrey Macnab, The Independent
