In Their Name (2022)

In 1941, a young girl and a group of women are photographed in freezing temperatures before their execution. 80 years later an elderly Australian woman and a filmmaker come together to attempt to tell their story.

Filmmaker Peter Hegedus embarks on the challenging journey to make Sorella's Story, an immersive 360° film set on the beaches of Latvia in December 1941, when thousands of Jewish Women and children perished at the hands of Nazi collaborators. Along the way Peter teams up with Jewish-Australian 90-year-old Ethel Davies whose family was also killed in the same massacre.
