In 'The Seven Boxes,' Dory Sontheimer narrates the discovery of her family's past through seven boxes found in the attic of her house. Raised in Franco's Spain, Dory uncovers a hidden identity and a dramatic past as she sorts through photographs, letters, and documents. For twelve years, she conducts an investigation that takes her through Germany, Israel, the United States, Canada, and the Czech Republic, following the trail of a family victimized by Nazism. This moving testimony reveals the lives of Jewish refugees in Spain, who denied their origins to survive. Sontheimer documents the pain and guilt of the survivors, offering a sincere and emotional account of memory and identity.
