Production

The Memory Thief was the first feature film directed by the Nigerian-born playwright Gil Kofman.

Kofman himself had married into a family of Holocaust survivors, so the topic of the film related to his personal life.

In the interview sequences shown, the movie makes use of the testimonies of actual Holocaust survivors.
