At age 98, director Goldfinger's grandmother passed away, leaving him the task of clearing out the Tel Aviv flat that she and her husband shared for decades since immigrating from Nazi Germany in the 1930s. Sifting through a dense mountain of photos, letters, files, and objects, Goldfinger begins to uncover clues that seem to point to a greater mystery and soon a complicated family history unfolds before his camera. What starts to take shape reflects nothing less than the troubled and taboo story of three generations of Germans - both Jewish and non-Jewish - trying to piece together the puzzle of their lives in the aftermath of the terrible events of World War II. -- (C) IFC

Review For The Flat

There's something touching about the way Goldfinger obeys his moral compass.
Wesley Morris-Boston Globe

I will salute the deftness and intelligence with which Goldfinger observes the reactions of the living to the revelations of the dead.
Lisa Schwarzbaum-Entertainment Weekly

Are things better left alone or is revealing all always the best path? "The Flat," to its credit, offers nothing like a definitive answer.
Tom Long-Detroit News

"The Flat" is a compelling tale of history made personal, and of what happens when light is shone on something previously murky.
Moira MacDonald-Seattle Times

The movie feels more like a thriller and a mystery than a documentary. Perhaps someday, someone will be inspired to dramatize this astonishing story.
Leba Hertz-San Francisco Chronicle

Engrossing doc finds buried bonds between an Israeli family and an important Nazi.
John DeFore-Hollywood Reporter

'The Flat' has a strange staying power that the objects in the apartment didn't.
Dan Lybarger-KC Active

An intriguing documentary about a man who discovers some huge surprises with major implications when he starts digging through the stuff left behind in his grandparent's apartment in Tel Aviv after his grandmother's death.
Robert Roten-Laramie Movie Scope

Arnon's filmmaking is flaccid, with TV-style interviews and rote reaction shots in place of cinematic imagery and deftly edited surprises.
Joe Williams-St. Louis Post-Dispatch

Since there's no big payoff, the family drama documentary fizzles in the end.
Dennis Schwartz-Ozus' World Movie Reviews

Grandma's closet contains a story only the third generation can hear
Marty Mapes-Movie Habit

An earnest and deeply personal exhumation of proverbial skeletons in the family closet, The Flat is damned by its own incuriosity.
Brent Simon-Shockya.com

A grim historical detective story indeed.
Kelly Vance-East Bay Express

Once the facts have been presented, the film begins to run out of steam and one is only left to question why the filmmaker took this approach.
Laura Clifford-Reeling Reviews

A film that turns a personal story into a commentary on international denial and healing after World War II.
Brian Tallerico-HollywoodChicago.com

Watching Goldfinger's curiosity be met with different answers to the same questions while his mother absorbs this new side of her own parents proves a fascinating study in family history.
Gabrielle Lipton-Paste Magazine

An unsettling look at the generational fallout from the Holocaust.
Chris Hewitt (St. Paul)-St. Paul Pioneer Press

Who lied or who hid the truth?. . .The more and more public facts and private revelations Goldfinger uncovers are tantalizingly confounding and irresistibly fascinating.
