Not to mention her parents both died in a German camp. She had no choice and her own Aunt calling her a traitors daughter! That's unloving her parents just died. Not the girls fault.
Tottaly agree, for most of the documentary I was thinking she was a horrible person but when it was reviled about her parents i felt a great amount of sympathy for her
@@colinernest8430 If she had written the story of her father and her life people would have had sympathy for her and it may have helped to restore her father's name. The Belgium community may have even issued an apology.
How could anyone believe that wolves would embrace a human and that a child was eating scraps of raw meat to survive. This was the most disturbing documentary I've seen. She lied admitted it and got away with by continuing to gaslight everyone.
I was raised by a dog as my family was not emotionally available to me..now I have nana dogs - husky types who care for me and my family so I niece it it's how eves became dogs there is a human canine connection ...I felt it and I'm a different type of person because of it
Well both her parents died and she was treated poorly. No one cared that she suffered. So she made a story up to get sympathy. I am not saying what she did was right because she tricked people. I think since everyone was so mean to her growing up she stopped caring for other people and how they feel and only manipulates to get her needs met. She needs lots of therapy
The fact she told lies about wolves such as the alpha wolf thing had me knowing she at least lied about that. There is no such thing as alpha wolves, wolves live as parents and children like humans.
the best way to watch this documentary is indeed when you don't know anything about the story, like it was for me. You get to live the twists and reveals as you go through. One of the best documentaries I've seen on Netflix in recent years together with "My octopus teacher"
This woman had some serious trauma as a young child. Then to top it off, she was shunned & called names by all around her, including her own family for things she had no control over...as a CHILD. This was her "safe place"...her reality. I don't fault her for that. She went through her own hell just like anyone else during that time. She was obviously extremely traumatized by all of it. Imagine going through all of that & nobody to hug you & say "you've done nothing wrong" "I love you" or even just hug & hold you after your parents were taken & killed...& you're only just a small CHILD. She wasn't even old enough to almost understand any of it. She was telling her truth bc thats what she told herself growing up. She had to make up the story of the wolves in her head in order to FEEL LOVED AS A CHILD. She never knew unconditional love bc she was so young when it all happened. Then all of this comes out & I truly believe this woman could just use a hug & an "im so sorry this happened to you, im sorry everyone around you failed you". I wish I could do that. But instead, once again, everyone shuns her & says how awful she is & talks about how her father was a trader...THAT'S EXACTLY WHAT SHE'S USED TO. I dont believe shes a bad person, she's a traumatized child living in an adult body...in a way.
And so was the lady who was doing the research in Belgium who was Jewish and hidden away. If she had actually written her father's real-life story and her childhood, she may have been able to restore her father's name and the Belgium people may have issued her an apology. She duped a lot of people out of money in the community. She was asking the Rabbi's for help with money.
Crazy that so many people were dumb enough to believe her story. Living in the wilderness is extrenely difficult. Doing it alone without experience is almost impossible. A 7 year old girld doing it is impossible. The wolf thing just makes it more obvious. Do people think life is a disney movie?
I hope she is to pay ever single cent she took from people all around the world, movie deals, all the royalties full stop Including the funds she got from her locals and the Jewish church as well, her local Jewish persons who gave her money every single cent needs to be p[aid back full repayment and do it via her bank, so every day a certain amount is deducted and distributed to those people who gave her money?
The substantive elements of her story are true, though: She is a child of the holocaust. A survivor of it. Her parents were deported by THAT party and died in THAT camp. She is, certainly a victim of the holocaust. Just because she wasn't raised by wolves, the sensational and unusual element of the story, it does not detract from her childhood trauma shared with all the other children whose parents were killed in the camps. Who will denounce Anne Frank as a fraud because she invented an imaginary friend, eh? I have only sympathy for the child. Also, the utter injustice of labelling her Resistance-Fighter father as a traitor, for breaking under torture, should be rescinded.
Yes, but if she had written the true story of her father and her childhood, she would have had sympathy, the Belgium community may have issued her an apology and she could have restored her father's name.
Just started watching this. Im at 8min. I was taken aback that a 5yr old would not know their parents first and last name. Im skeptical just on that.....cant wait to finish. Paused to watch ur video. Btw, dont know about her
I can’t believe Misha won the lawsuit when she refused to go on Opera but than expected millions of copies sold and was upset she did not make money. It was her fault for that. Also if she did do that than the truth would have never came out.
Exciting review Chris, I will definitely be watching this one. I've never heard of the woman in name but I want to hear her story. Plus i love wolves! Sounds like romulus and remmes who were said to of been raised by a she wolves and went on to create the roman empire. Mythology at it's best. 💚👍🍪🌱💨🐢
Great job Mate. I just watched it and then listened to your review and I must say I felt the same. Not let down at the end but intrigued enough to recommend it to friends who are instant believers of the unreal or unbelievable in today’s media and mainly through TH-cam.
What, if EVERYTHING was fiction and it was meant to prove that we all have the tendency to believe spectacular stories, but don't see what is happening before our eyes? I was suspicious at once, I live in Belgium and have my own (rather strange) story, that is NOT believed, though every detail proves that it 'could' be true (and I know it is and how naive I was when I thought that bringing it out was going to change people's mentality). I live in the city of Antwerp and was sure that I had a normal life, which I quite liked to be honest, but after my father woke up from an induced coma without the obvious effects that could have been expected (he had a mojor stroke, the day before and actually was expected to die in the following hours), everything changed rapidly. I tried to keep things livabel, but ended in an extreme burnout that became even fatal. The bizarre fact was the complete lack of concern in my environment, they were sure that I was playing the dramaqueen. At this moment (it's already ten years ago and I've learned a lot since then), I know that the basic source is narcissism - it started with 'you're not good enough' and ended with 'you're completely incompetent' - but they do not mention that everything I said and could prove was denied from the start - I was playing a role in a movie and even didn't know which role I was filling in. Maybe, they kept me in the dark to keep everything authentic, looking back, I am far from incompetent and the problems, I am working on, are extremely complex and inflammable - they cover the entire world and have their roots in our distant past, but if we want to understand the past, we have to find the answers in the present. I will not experience the moment that people understand how wrong they have reacted - it's not strange that I was cautious about my knowledge and it was necessary to be recognizable for an average public - but they kept on putting me under pressure and the reactions were not inviting me in at all. This time, there won't be a second chance - you had to believe me before it became a lethal weapon. This is not the end of the World, and some people can take over the work that I could not finish myself, but it's sad to see what has become of us, now there is more to spend.
I felt the same way. No matter what you think of her, her mother and father really where taken and ultimately died in the camps can u imagine that on a young child and what their mind must think of and imagination to build in these types of circumstances? I choose to see it for what it is, that something awful war related happened to this woman when she was a child with the loss of her parents. Sure, she shouldn't have elaborated on lies the way she did whoever, she could have been just as successful had she said it was fiction but gave us the impression that is really where her mind went to protect and imagine her world around her. I am on the fence about her but love the story
I agree, it was very well done. I remember this story coming out before they caught her for lying. I typically love stories of wolves saving children and such but something about this one made me feel it was fake. After I avoided further interest in the story, I never thought of it again so I knew nothing of the final twists and turns. Until today, when I ran across the documentary on Netflix. It was a gripping story the way it was told but I feel rather vindicated now for my quick call to judgement. 🤔
OK. I’m not trying to start a second conspiracy surrounding the story, but I’m pretty good at recognizing faces. Can anyone explain to me, why the Micha we see being interviewed in the movie looks like a completely different woman than a woman being interviewed all over Europe? I’m serious. My brain is not able to match these two faces.
Did you even watch the dov or pay any attention? They show multiple times that she is just dressed up to look like her because the real one didnt agree to do an interview for obvious reasons.
@@dingo9696 That’s a strange way to handle someone not wanting to do interviews. And I don’t know what’s up with all the diminutive attitude but thanks for the explanation I guess?
The sad thing was a child being called "the traitors daughter".
No wonder she invented another world.
Not to mention her parents both died in a German camp. She had no choice and her own Aunt calling her a traitors daughter! That's unloving her parents just died. Not the girls fault.
Happy to see that some still have a brain and a heart.
Oh,cut it out already

"We called her the traitor's daughter" what a horrible family.

"It was real in my mind"
@@tamistone2632 that is entirely different as you still had your family physically.
The fact she told lies about wolves such as the alpha wolf thing had me knowing she at least lied about that. There is no such thing as alpha wolves, wolves live as parents and children like humans.
I think this is proof that sympathy and charisma are very dangerous tools.
Shocked that the lawsuit was only "partially" overturned wtf. She basically got away with it
That shocked me as well!
Well the lady wrote and invented the story so maybe that is why.
I think Misha was ordered in 2014 to give the rest of the money back
the best way to watch this documentary is indeed when you don't know anything about the story, like it was for me. You get to live the twists and reveals as you go through. One of the best documentaries I've seen on Netflix in recent years together with "My octopus teacher"
My favorite apart about this whole documentary was watching Evelyne Haendel. I hope I can be as half as good and profound as her when I grow up.

It sucked me in! How she fooled the judge and jury as well we Europe was stunning.

wow she was a survived of her family and war, ,,,,
Anyone else thinks that Mommer woman looks like Merkel's long lost sister?
Disney and Nazis a very intimate connection
🥺
it keep me 👀👀👀👀👀👀
this documentary is fantastic 🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌
I thought this documentary was about Jodi Picoult book The Storyteller. I haven't watched it yet, only heard about it
This sounds just wonderful - I'll be watching it today. Thanks!
