An attempt to cope with painful events of 1968 – an outbreak of the anti-Semitic hysteria which led to mass exile of citizens of Jewish origin from Poland. Emigrants have been meeting for 20 years in an Izraeli spa, Aszkelon, located at the Mediterranean Sea. It’s been 37 years since they left and Poland is still present at their homes. The emigrants’ stories were enriched with unique archive materials.
