English / French with English subtitles
Rated M
111 minutes
Julia, an American journalist married to a Frenchman, is commissioned to write an article about the notorious Vel d'Hiv round up, which took place in Paris, in 1942. She stumbles upon a family secret which will link her forever to a young Jewish girl, Sarah.
Julia learns that the apartment she and her husband Bertrand plan to move into was acquired by Bertrand's family when its Jewish occupants were dispossessed and deported 60 years before.
She resolves to find out what happened to the former occupants, 10-year-old Sarah, four-year-old Michel and their parents. The more Julia discovers - especially about Sarah, the only survivor - the more she uncovers about Bertrand's family, about France and, finally, herself.
Sarah's Key is by French director Gilles Paquet-Brenner
