In a recent interview, Lena Dunham opens up about her experience working on the film 'Treasure' alongside Stephen Fry, discussing the profound impact it had on her and the emotional journey they embarked upon together. They play a father-daughter duo in the film, which delves into confronting family history and the legacy of the Holocaust. Dunham shares how the shared Jewish heritage between her and Fry deepened their bond and understanding of the story they were telling.

Reflecting on her time filming in Poland, Dunham reveals how the experience was a transformative one, particularly as she revisited the country with a newfound perspective and a sober, adult mindset. The visit to historical sites such as Auschwitz served as a poignant reminder of the atrocities of the past and the importance of bearing witness to such events to prevent them from happening again.
