Highlights
Synopsis
Clara is a powerful and moving drama in which an aging father is forced to come to grips with the crushing reality of his daughter’s senseless murder.
Grilled relentlessly by a dispassionate detective, the father is unable to bring his memory into focus until, in the trenchant monologue recalling a disquieting incident from his wartime experience, the past suddenly clarifies the present and unlocks the damning evidence which the detective has been seeking.
Part of the collection Danger: Memory!
