My maternal Grandfather Charles Hochheiser was born in Austria Hungary in 1885 in the town of Wojkowa (pronounced VoyKova). His family, the Hochhauser,s go back to the 1700's in the same area. After I was invited to attend the Trnasatlantyk Film and Music Festival in Poznan Poland I did some family research and found out that Wojkowa today is in Poland, South east of Krakow. After the festival, I traveled around Poland and this video is a record of my travelling to Wojkowa with four Polish friends who were kind enough to give their time, warmth and friendship to exploring this journey with me. My thanks to Mikael Bielawski, Balbina Bruszewska, Adrian Konarski and Anka Graczyk.
