Granny Project is a seven-year-long
investigation of three young men coming to terms with their heritage through
the extraordinary lives of their grandmothers: an English spy, a dancer from
Nazi Germany and a Hungarian Communist Holocaust survivor. The grandsons embark
with their grannies on an anarchic journey into the past – a complex road movie
about intergenerational dialogue in
Britain, Germany and Hungary.
The film
deals with classic values and taboo-like
historical topics – and the method used is equally important, as it gives
an insight to the zeitgeist of the young today.
