| Summary |
The international actor Warwick Davis undertakes a pertinent journey, exploring the history of dwarves during WWII and, in particular, the fascinating story of the Ovitz family of seven dwarves, a music troupe who miraculously survived the war. It's a story so fantastic; it could almost be a fairytale. In fact, the Nazis adapted Snow White in to a propaganda film, just one of the insights that Warwick gains on his journey. This is a personal, respectful and intelligent journey in which Warwick unearths a fascinating story and charts us through moving and inspirational territory, dark fairytales and human endurance. (From the UK, in English & Hebrew) (Documentary) PG (A) CC **Premiere** |
