Based on a true story. Filmed in Poland.
Irena Gut Opdyke, a Polish Catholic nurse risked her life to heroically save Jewish lives during WWII – a triumph of the human spirit over devastating tragedy. These kinds of acts of heroism were common in occupied Poland during WWII, yet few of them have been told. Irena Gut was a powerful voice in a time of deafening silence and her message resonates with events of the world today.
A courageous and inspiring film that needs to be seen.
