About Everything is Illuminated
Filmed in Ukraine rated PG13, it is based on the critically-acclaimed novel by Jonathan Safran Foer, “Everything is Illuminated” tells the story of a young man’s quest to find the woman who saved his grandfather in a small Ukrainian town that was wiped off the map by the Nazi invasion. What starts out as a journey to piece together one family’s story under absurd circumstances turns into a meaningful journey with a powerful series of revelations – the importance of remembrance, the perilous nature of secrets, the legacy of the Holocaust, and the meaning of friendship.
