In 2003, the Berest family receive a mysterious, unsigned postcard with the names of their relatives who were killed in Auschwitz: Ephraïm, Emma, Noémie and Jacques.
Years later, Anne sought to find the truth behind this postcard. She journeys into the past, tracing the lives of her ancestors from the war and its aftermath. What emerges is a thrilling tale based on true events.
A gripping investigation into family secrets, The Postcard tells the story of a family devastated by the Holocaust and yet somehow restored by love and the power of storytelling.
