Artemis Media has devised a new returnable documentary format which is being produced for SBS TV Australia. Presented by much loved and well respected actress Noni Hazlehurst this masterfully crafted observational documentary series follows everyday Australians and sometimes a well-known celebrity, on a life changing journey, seeking out the hidden secrets within their families.
For this episode a woman (now 75) that immigrated to Perth, Western Australia with her Dutch Jewish parents when she was seven years old returns to the Netherlands and the Czech Republic. She was aware her mum Helena lived through World War II but she never discussed the Holocaust. It was only after her mother died that Ellis discovered her mother had kept a monumental secret from her that challenged all she knew about her identity.
For this episode Featurez gave advice, did research, set up and planning, organised a driver/fixer, booked a rental van and rental car, did the driving, accompanied the filming and did the needed translations.
