On the occasion of the International Holocaust Remembrance Day, the Austrian Cultural Forum and the Press and Information Service of the Austrian Embassy in Washington, DC have presented a film screening of You Only Die Twice.
Film by Yair Lev and David Deri. Director: Yair Lev / Israel 2018
Synopsis
Surprisingly, the film director’s mother became the heiress of a cottage in posh North London. She had only to prove that she is the daughter of Ernst Bechinsky. But then came an astonishing discovery: another death certificate was discovered in Austria, revealing a man with the same name and I.D., born on the same date and in the same place as Ernst Bechinsky. A suspenseful thriller exposes a man, who lived with an S.S. family and became president of a Jewish Community through deception, leading to an extremely charged meeting between descendants of Jews and Nazis.
