Austerlitz

Austerlitz

This is the real life story of Jacques Austerlitz who, at the age of five, came to London on one of the so-called kindertransports in the summer of 1939. Austerlitz is placed with foster parents in Wales who erase in the boy all knowledge of his identity. It is only in his retirement that the past returns to haunt him and makes him explore what happened to him half a century ago.
