On a peaceful, dreamlike country estate in southern Germany, three generations of women live with the quiet weight of a painful past. In It Happened on Our Ground, director Avner Faingulernt brings to the screen the extraordinary life of Wendelgard von Staden - Wendi - a woman who, in the final years of her life, is still grappling with the long shadow cast by her family’s proximity to Nazi power and the atrocities of the Holocaust.
