What is Sunshine about? Toggle content

Sunshine tells the story of three generations of a Jewish family living in Hungary, from the mid-1800ss to the mid-1900s, and their struggles with identity, religion, and belonging. The family's rise to wealth and power is marked by tragic events, including the loss of loved ones during World War I and the Holocaust. As the political climate shifts and anti-Semitism rises, the family is forced to confront their heritage and make difficult choices to survive. Through it all, the family's legacy and a secret recipe for a medicinal tonic become symbols of hope and resilience. With stunning visuals and powerful performances, Sunshine is a moving and thought-provoking exploration of family, history, and the human experience.
