Another WWII era story. Though the story itself is fictional, the events that occur are based on fact. It is always surreal to me to believe that these are historical events. Such a sad time in the course of history.
A Lutheran pastor finds himself drawn into the world of helping Danish Jews escape before they are rounded up and shipped to concentration camps. However, the one woman that matters the most he is unable to help. As both of their stories unfold you will wonder if either of them will survive the war.
Let us never forget what evil man is capable of. And let us never cease to fight for what is right even to our own detriment. I will end with a quote from the book that I will carry with me.
"There may be times when we are powerless to prevent injustice, but there must never be a time when we fail to protest."
- Elie Wiesel
