Hidden in Silence

Kellie Martin does an outstanding job in this movie... She is quite the underrated actress. This movie was well written and portrays the atrocities that people can do to one another. It also exposes the kindness that I like to think we all have as well.

This is the underrated Kellie Martin's best role. Based on a true story, it tells the story of Fusia's attempt to save the members of the Diamant family and other Jews she meets over time. One of my all-time favorite movie scenes involves an heroic act by Fusia's little sister. All children should see this scene-role models like this are very few and far between. The movie is well written and acted. I am a movie lover and this movie I rate a 10 on imbd's rating system. It is on my top 25 movies of all time and should be put out on video.

This movie was very realistic. It shows how some Christians truly went out of their way and risked their lives to help those of Jewish descent (by hiding them). The portrayal of the Jews while in hiding is very realistic and does not "make it seem easy of glamorous" as some movies do. I will share this with my children and help them to realize what this part of history is truly about. I hope that others will share this well-made/clean movie with their children as well.

On June 22nd, 1941, the city of Przemysl, Poland is divided between German and Russian. When the German invades the city, the Nazis send the Jews to a ghetto. The young Catholic Fusia Podgorska (Kellie Martin), alone with her young sister, lodges and hides many Jews in the attic of her house along two and half years until the end of the war. "Hidden in Silence" is another good story of human sympathy in World War II. This film looks like "Rescuers: Stories of Courage", and is also based on a true story. Unfortunately, the actress Kellie Martin performs a strong and powerful lead character, but she is very weak for such a role. In many dramatic situations, the expression of her face is not convincing. I have noted that many IMDb Users liked her performance, but I am not sure whether they like her wonderful character or her performance indeed. My vote is seven.

Title (Brazil): "Ocultos no Medo" ("Hidden in Fear")

I enjoyed the movie and Kellie Martins performance immensely. It's the kind of movie I can show my family and has an example of a young woman placed in extraordinary circumstances finding the courage to do the right thing in the face of extreme danger.
