Based on an unforgettable true WWII story.
Irene Sendler was one of the most remarkable – and most unlikely – heroes of World War II, saving 2500 Jewish children during the German occupation of Poland. As a social worker, Irena had access to the Warsaw Ghetto, making it possible for her to rescue the daughter of a Jewish friend and safely hide the young girl with a Catholic family. At great personal risk, she devised extraordinary schemes to sneak the children by Nazi Guards, bringing them out in ambulances, suitcases and even wheelbarrows. Irena was eventually captured by the Gestapo. Her heroic efforts were honoured by a nomination for the Nobel Peace Prize in 2007.
Stars Golden Globe best actress nominee, Anna Paquin and Emmy Award best actress nominee, Marcie Gay Harden.
