Description: Yossi Klein's bedtime stories were his father's reminiscences of the Holocaust and survival in a secret underground bunker. As a child, Yossi was prepared for a recurrence of a Jewish persecution along with other youngsters growing up in Brooklyn's Boro Park, the largest Orthodox survivor community. This documentary, filmed over a five-year period, uses interviews, period footage and home movies to follow Yossi's odyssey as writer/activist battling fear and uncertainty and endeavoring to come to terms with his father's traumatic legacy.
