Overview
The Witteveen family did not often talk about the war, not even their grandmother, who had lived through it. That changes when one of her grandsons, through his aunt, comes across an old liberation skirt belonging to his grandmother, a garment she had kept for 73 years. Curious about the story behind it, he delves into archives and talks to family members in search of answers. What begins as a simple discovery becomes a personal journey through her war experiences and a reflection on his own freedom, identity, and how the traces of the past are still palpable.
