BACK TO BERLIN
OUT 23 NOVEMBER
Catherine Lurie’s debut doc follows a group of Jewish bikers as they travel from Tel Aviv to Berlin for the 2015 Maccabi Games. Sharing family accounts of survival during the Holocaust, the bikers build a tapestry of stories as they seek to connect with the experiences of their forebears. Despite occasionally melodramatic narration from Jason Isaacs, it’s an affecting work with powerful archive footage. Tim Coleman
