History Through Film: The Last Goldfish

In this documentary film, a daughter's search for her lost family stretches from Australia to Trinidad and WWII Germany.

Su Goldfish was raised in Trinidad, but moved to Australia when she was thirteen, following an attempted military coup. As a child, Su didn't realise she was white. As an adult, she finds a new family in Sydney's queer community, learns she is Jewish and that she has half-siblings on the other side of the world.
