Past Life

In 1977, two Israeli sisters, Stephi (Joy Rieger, Live and Become), an aspiring classical composer and singer, and Nana (Nelly Tagar, Zero Motivation), a combative liberal journalist, investigate a wartime mystery that's cast a shadow over their lives. As they unravel secrets from the past, they confront the taboo topic of their father's experiences in Poland during World War II. Avi Nesher , himself the son of Holocaust survivors, based his gripping screenplay on the wartime diaries of Dr. Baruch Milch and the film's hauntingly beautiful score was composed by Ella Milch-Sheriff, the inspiration for the Stephi character.
