The Lithuanian Jewish community was decimated in the Holocaust: over 220,000 Jews, more than 95% of the population, were murdered. A key player in the massacre was Lithuanian nationalist Jonas Noreika, who is today revered as a national hero, and protected by the contemporary government's official policy and infamous Lithuanian Genocide and Resistance Research Centre. In this galvanising documentary, follow the experiences of two dissident campaigners: Grant Gochin, whose family was murdered by Noreika; and Silvia Foti, a brave Lithuanian woman fighting for the truth... and whose grandfather was Jonas Noreika. Together, the two push against Lithuania's systemic Holocaust denial in an attempt to bring justice to victims and the truth to account.
