Ab nach Rio - Die Guggenheim Akte 2009

Directed by Jens Huckeriede

A documentary about remembering and forgetting 60 years after the Shoa. Contemporary witnesses no longer live, and the author embarks on a search for an artistic strategy to sharpen the perception of the absent. In a labyrinth of memories we see interviews with Ivoné Simon (né. Guggenheim) from Brazil, the sons of the former homeowner Michael and Claus Fritsche as well as the scientists Prof. Dr. Aleida Assmann, Prof. Dr. Gabriele Rosenthal and Dr. Claudia Curio and others.
