On My Way Out: The Secret Life of Nani and Popi.
This short documentary follows Ruth and Roman Blank -- Nani and Popi -- who survived the concentration camps of Nazi Germany, then came to America to marry, raise a family and live their lives. At the age of 95, Popi shares his long kept secret with the family -- he’s gay. Though Nani had a notion this was the case, it was still shocking news. As they prepare for their 65th wedding anniversary, the couple looks back on their lives and wonders what could have been, if only they’d lived in a world devoid of homophobia.
