World War II led to the disappearance of Yiddish as a widespread everyday language. But Yiddish is still a big part of the Jewish identity. In southern Sweden, two teenagers have found their Yiddish teacher in the pediatrician, psychiatrist and author Salomon Schulman. Through language, they get closer to their roots and history.
