About this event:
Sarah, a ten year-old girl, was arrested by the French police during the 1942 Vel’ d’Hiv’ atrocity. She locks her younger brother in a cupboard in the family's apartment, thinking that she will be released shortly from police custody. Sixty years later, journalist Julia Jarmond is asked to write an article about this horrific day in France's past. She stumbles onto a trail of family secrets which connect her to Sarah and subsequently retraces this girl's journey to the camps as well as Jarmond's own personal journey into her family’s past.
