The Maltz Museum is proud to partner with the 49th Cleveland International Film Festival on a screening of The Stamp Thief.
Part detective story, part heist film, part untold history, The Stamp Thief investigates a tale dating back to the Holocaust—a mysterious Nazi stole priceless stamp collections from concentration camp victims and buried the stolen stamps in a small town in Poland. Embarking on a real-life “Argo”-like adventure, one-time Seinfeld producer Gary Gilbert sets out to confirm the story and recover the stamps. His tactic: a fake movie shoot. His goal: to return the stamps to their rightful owners, hopefully delivering a small measure of justice more than 70 years after the Holocaust.
The full CIFF 49 lineup includes more than 300 films. The 49th season runs March 27 – April 5, 2025, at Playhouse Square, followed by CIFF Streams April 6-13, 2025. Explore the complete CIFF49 Film Guide at clevelandfilm.org.
