In 1945, a young German officer is shot dead by Soviet soldiers in front of his Jewish-heritage Ukrainian wife, and his 4-year old daughter. Seventy years later, three generations reflect on the family's historiography, some real, some imagined, sharing their memories and untold psychological trauma of the Great War. Longlisted for an Obama-Biden White House SAMHSA Voice Award for production tackling mental health on screen, After the War is a stirring reflection on the long-lasting effects of war and PTSD in common people to whom war just happens.
