"Based on a true story: In the quiet village of Le Chambon-sur-Lignon, a resistance is stirring... In Europe, the Nazi regime's bloody wake persists as they brutally send "undesirables" to concentration camps. Hannah, a young Jew, loses her mother and sister while fleeing certain death, arriving in Le Chambon in search of refuge. Driven by their deeply rooted faith in God, Protestant pastor Andre Trocme and his formidable wife Magda have turned the unassuming community in the foothills of the French Alps into a quiet resistance -- a haven where they shelter escapees from Hitler's ever-tightening fist. But a sadistic crew is on the rise. Under the supervision of the Butcher of Lyon, Gestapo officer Herr Lauer pursues the Jewish girl. Hannah was in his sights, but when she evaded him, his explosive rage and thirst for revenge set him on a spiraling mission to track her down."-- Provided by publisher.
