In this captivating narrative featuring Sophie Nélisse, Dougray Scott, Andrzej Seweryn, and Maciek Nawrocki, the true story of Irena Gut Opdyke unfolds. This tale revolves around the resilience of the human spirit in the face of immense tragedy. Irena Gut, a 19-year-old, is unexpectedly promoted to housekeeper in a Nazi officer’s home just as the Jewish ghetto faces imminent liquidation. Fueled by a determination to save twelve Jewish workers, she makes a bold decision to shelter them in the safest place she can think of: the basement of the German commandant’s house. Over the next two years, Irena relies on her wit, humor, and unwavering courage to conceal her friends until the conclusion of the German occupation. Her story is a testament to the enduring power of the human spirit, and is one of the most inspirational stories of our time.
