From Academy Award nominee Uri Barbash (Beyond the Walls), comes the first ever Israeli / Polish co-production. Inspired by the work of famed author and Holocaust survivor Ida Fink, Spring 1941 is a characterdriven story about individuals shocked out of their everyday circumstances and into a world where any wrong movement could be their last.
Successful doctor Artur Planck, his wife Clara and their two daughters are seeking shelter from the Nazis storming Poland. They find a safe house in the farm of Emilia, their local grocer who has been left alone after her husband went to fight for his country and never returned.
Amidst the horrors of the war that surrounds them, an impossible love triangle erupts as Emelia uncontrollably falls in love with Artur. Such a fragile arrangement is sustained by love - or is it just the will to survive? The answer to that question may never be known even to those who make it out alive. This fascinating film will appeal to fans of The Pianist and The Notebook.
