ABOUT

Part detective story, part heist film, part history we must never forget, “The Stamp Thief” investigates a tale dating back to the Holocaust: that a mysterious Nazi stole priceless stamp collections from Jews 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 or their heirs, hopefully delivering a small measure of justice more than 80 years after the Holocaust.
