The Film Festival is a hallmark event that runs throughout the calendar and brings exciting, entertaining, and thought-provoking films to the community along with a discussion led by an area expert. In this riveting documentary, three Jewish brothers in Melbourne stumble on a family secret: their father, a Holocaust survivor and WWII partisan, allegedly went to Sydney in the 1950s to undertake a revenge killing against a Nazi. As they delve into the past, they unexpectedly unearth a web of Nazi networks Down Under, covert Jewish vigilante groups, and multiple cases of Nazis who mysteriously died or disappeared in post-WWII Australia. All of this occurs in the context of Cold War intrigue, with antisemitism at the highest level of government. A gripping story that poses the moral question of when, if ever, is it justified to take the law into your own hands?
