Reveals an ancient Jewish culture through the eyes of one family that survived the Holocaust in Greece. The Greek Jews in this documentary represent a branch of Judaism that most people have never heard of--The Romaniotes. Through testimony by the Ackos Family this memoir tells the compelling story of how this culture was almost wiped out off the map during World War II.
