Title: Reconciling the Irreconcilable
History, both Geopolitical and Personal leave traces in culture and in the psyche which have great effect on contemporary social currents and personality.
Set in modern Berlin and Jerusalem and through the lens of the lives and connection of an isolated, highly skilled baker from Berlin, an Israeli, consulting engineer, and his wife and son.
In Jerusalem, we see the effects of history in personality structure, defenses, and sublimations in their current lives. In a further twist of fate we also see how the reaction to loss may present an opportunity to unfreeze pathways to feeling and offer a chance for renewed growth and freedom.
