HERITAGE — Belgium, Hungary, Portugal 2021 — Directed by: Anna Gyimesi — 11 min — Spoken language: Hungarian — Subtitles: English — Production: DocNomads, Luca School of Arts, Brussels — Producers: Anna Gyimesi, Frederik Nicolai

My Heritage is not just a bunch of travel videos, capturing family holidays. It is a deeply personal confession of mine as well, through which I can purely ask whether it is possible to choose life after a traumatic past, whether happiness is a choice, and whether, as a third-generation Holocaust survivor, I have the right to smile.
