Testimony, memory and the power of literature
Israeli author Ron Segal reads from his novel "Every Day Like Today". Between truth and fiction, memory and forgetting, this debut novel explores how literature can talk about the Shoah two generations later. Ron Segal also gives an insight into his working process in turning the novel into an animated film.
Adam Schumacher, a 90-year-old Israeli writer and Holocaust survivor, returns to Germany for the first time to record his memories for a literary magazine. But his memory is increasingly failing him. Like the cobbler in Grimm's fairy tale, he discovers in the morning that someone has already written down his stories. He has little time left to fulfill his promise to his late wife - to write down their shared history before it fades away.
