synopsis

The film is a journey in search of personal identity. It reveals a history stretching from Spain all the way to the Czech village of Batelov, whose Wild West heroes have found eternal rest at the local Jewish cemetery. The film was selected for the closure of XV Festival de Cinema Jueu de Barcelona and screened at the XVII Jihlava International Documentary Film Festival.

No-one kneads us again out of earth and clay, no one conjures our dust. No-one. Praised be your name, No-one. For your sake we shall flower. Towards you. A Nothing we were, are, shall remain, flowering: the Nothing-, the No-one’s-rose.
