Description
When Steff finds an old photo of two young girls in his attic, he uncovers the existence of his mother’s sister, Céleste, who left their family during the Second World War.
Intrigued by his mother’s secrecy, Steff leaves his hometown of Aberystwyth to work in Paris in the 1970s, embarking on a quest to find out what happened to Céleste. He’s met with walls of silence from his grandparents, and frustration at every turn. Steff begins to investigate the plight of the Parisian Jews in the 1940s, and is shocked to find there’s also a shroud of mystery surrounding their fate.
Will he be able to put the jigsaw pieces together?
