The movie “Carta a un padre” (2013) is a journey discovering the family roots which aims at investigating the silence around the character of the father. Based on small details, such as other people’s daily-life objects, photographs, quotations, testimony and memories, Cozarinsky looks deeply into the process of loss, in order to reconstruct a silenced collective memory. He aims at resuming an interrupted transmission, that of his own history, made of hypothesis and interpretations.
