Avenue of the Giants

Avenue of the Giants is based on the life of Herbert Heller, one of the few to survive both Auschwitz and the Birkenau Death March. Herbert kept the miraculous story of his escape a secret from everyone including his own wife and children until 2004. The film focuses on the week of 2004 when Herbert shares his story with Abbey, a teen who has just barely survived a life threatening overdose. In sharing his secret with Abbey, she is inspired to share her own traumatic secret with him, which liberates them both and gives each a new found reason to live.
