Monsieur Mayonnaise

Australian artist and film-maker Philippe Mora traces his bloodline back through time to reveal how a mayonnaise sandwich helped defeat Nazis.

Mora investigates his father's clandestine role in the French Résistance in WW2 and his mother's miraculous escape en route to Auschwitz. Philippe, a Hollywood cult-horror movie director and pop-artist, adopts a Film Noir persona to tell his family's story. He also packs his paints and easel, as he embarks on a journey to create an audacious comic book about his parents, their survival and the Holocaust.
