“It was an emotionally difficult project to work on. While we were looking to discover the secrets of my father’s life and the reason behind his suicide, our journey brought us back to a dark chapter of our history, that we German, unlike the Nazi past, have not yet been able to come to terms with” (Petra Epperlein)
