Part detective story, part heist film, and part historical reckoning, “The Stamp Thief” delves into a decades-old mystery rooted in the Holocaust. The film uncovers the story of a rogue Nazi officer who, instead of aiding the victims whose belongings he was tasked with cataloging, stole millions of dollars’ worth of rare stamps and hid them in his home in what is today Poland.
In a real-life, “Argo”-like mission, former “Seinfeld” producer Gary Gilbert embarks on a daring quest to recover the stamps and return them to their rightful heirs. Disguising his investigation as a movie shoot, Gilbert sets out to deliver a powerful act of justice more than 75 years after the war.
Directed by Dan Sturman (U.S., Poland, and Germany, 2025, 103 minutes). English and Polish with English subtitles.
Boston premiere.
Followed by a conversation with film subject and producer Gary Gilbert, moderated by Roberta Grossman, executive director & co-founder of Jewish Story Partners.
