Synopsis

A Gifted Town raises questions that echo throughout the entire program: how do we, in the present, access history; how can film become an accomplice in distorting historical truth; what is there to say about the credibility of the (film) archives? A would-be documentary from the Nazi-era is exposed as having been counterfeit: a collection of drawings and archival documents serve to restore the dark truth.
