Synopsis
The fathers die on the Eastern front, in a prisoner of war camp, or are labelled as missing since the days of war. The lives of the daughters, born shortly before or during the war, are clearly marked by loss of their fathers. The relationship to the deceased father is a highly conflicted one. The daughters ask themselves what their fathers did in the war. Did he possibly get caught up in war crimes? On the other hand, many daughters speak even today about an unending longing for this man, that she never knew. This father figure obsesses them.
Nine daughters who have lost their fathers to war speak in this film about their experiences.
