In the bombed debris of WWII Warsaw, young Polish Catholic women fight to save the most vulnerable of Poland's Jews -- the children.
Don't miss the moving story of Irena Sendler and a group of young Polish Catholic social workers who smuggled thousands of Jewish children from the Warsaw ghetto and kept them safe until the end of the war. Seven years in the making, this film features the last long interviews Irena Sendler gave before she died in 2008 at the age of 98 in Warsaw.

..it is the profoundly committed artistry of filmmaker Mary Skinner that brings the horror, sadness and magnitude of Sendler's story so overwhelmingly to light...appealing not just to the mind, but to the soul..
