100% OF ALL FUNDS COLLECTED WILL SUPPORT THOSE IMPACTED BY THE CRISIS IN UKRAINE.

Winner of the MJFF 2020 Audience Award for Best Narrative Film, this powerful saga of courage and compassion is based on the astonishing true-life story of Sara Góralnik, a 13-year-old Jew who lost her entire family in the Holocaust, yet struggled to outlast the Nazis and fought to keep alive her Jewish faith. After a grueling escape, she steals her Christian best friend’s identity and finds refuge in a small Ukrainian village, where she is taken in by a farmer and his young wife and hidden in plain sight, masquerading as a Christian.
