Las siete cajas

Synopsis of Las siete cajas

Dory Sontheimer grew up in post-war Barcelona, raised in the Catholic faith under the rigid morality of the Franco regime. After her mother's death, she discovered seven dusty boxes in her attic filled with letters, photographs, and documents that revealed a long-buried family secret: her Jewish-German ancestry and the tragic fate of her relatives murdered by the Nazis. Driven by a search for truth and justice, the author embarks on a journey to reconstruct her identity and give a voice to those who were silenced. This true story is a moving account of exile, resistance, and how, even in the darkest times, love and memory prevail over hatred.
