Roger Peltzman transforms his one-man play into a deeply poetic, musical, and cinematic journey. Peltzman’s family fled Berlin for Brussels in 1933, and this story centers on his uncle Norbert, the finest pianist in Belgium, until he was murdered in Auschwitz at 21 years old. A singular tale from the Shoah that is at once extraordinary and relatable, Dedication also comes to terms with second-generation survivor trauma and the role of music in helping to manage wounds that will never fully heal.
Selection: Edinburgh Fringe Festival 2022, Washington Jewish Film Festival 2022, Miami Jewish Film Festival 2023.
Film Star Sponsor: Ledgewood Wealth Advisors
