Family secrets, lies, high drama and generations of contemporary history unspool in this international story that begins with World War II and concludes with an emotional 21st-century family reunion. Izak was born inside the Bergen-Belsen displaced persons camp in 1945 and sent for adoption in Israel. Secret details of his birth mother, an unknown brother in Canada and his father's true identity slowly emerge in this extremely personal investigative film. Timely questions of identity, resilience, compassion and the plight of displaced persons are brought to life as Izak and Shep, the almost 70-year-old brothers, finally meet in Canada, then head to a nursing home in Quebec to introduce Shep to his elderly mother, Aida, for the first time.

| Los Angeles TimesSheri LindenOne family's silences and lies unravel before our eyes in the gripping, intimate "Aida's Secrets." |
| Winnipeg Free PressAlison GillmorAida's Secrets is not an incredibly artful doc...But the straight-ahead observation of this specific human story is powerfully emotional and affecting, particularly in the way it tracks the brothers' newfound relationship. |
| National PostChris KnightCo-directors (and extended family members) Alon and Saul Schwarz use clever editing to parse out the genealogical twists and turns in the story, although a final-act surprise is left hanging. |
| Deseret News (Salt Lake City)Josh TerryIn that sense, "Aida's Secrets" carries a feeling of suspense that few documentaries achieve. The film's style is straightforward and intimate, eschewing fancy technique to focus on the gravity of its subject. |
| Salt Lake TribuneSean P. MeansEven though Aida's Secrets lacks a big, satisfying payoff, there are small joys along the way. |
| Arizona RepublicBill Goodykoontz"Aida's Secrets" starts out as a fairly straightforward documentary about reuniting two long-separated brothers, but directors Alon and Shaul Schwarz don't stop there. |
| User ReviewBarrie AJust great. Don't want to give anything away. Go see it. |
| User ReviewMichael LVery intriguing and moving story about love, loss and secrets. |
| User ReviewMadeleine NWorthwhile. In the aftermath of a horrific war, one parts with her babies. |
