Βased on the book 548 Days With Another Name: Salonika 1943: A Child’s Diary, An Adult’s Memories of War by Rosina Asser Pardo
In 1943, 10-year-old-Rozina, from her hiding place (a small apartment in the center of Thessaloniki) decided to write her diary under the fake name Roula Karakotsou. This was her only escape from the Nazis, as she endured 548 days of nameless existence in silence. The viewer experiences her adventure through her childish gaze, her narratives, as long as she is hidden.
