Shalom

(2009)

* Won Tampa Bay Jewish Film Festival 2010

Shalom is a story about the granddaughter of
a Nazi SS officer who attempts to return a
piece of jewelry to the family of a Jewish
man who was executed at Auschwitz. The
symbolic necklace, a hamsa, was taken, as a
bribe, in order to save the man's 7 year old
daughter from going with him to the gas
chamber.

Written and Directed by Michael Matteo
