    I enjoyed the movie and Kellie Martins performance immensely.

    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.

    An amazingly realistic movie about Jews in hiding during the war.

    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.

    Inspiring family movie

    This is based on a true story and unlike many WWII, Holocaust themed dramas, you can show this one to your kids. Very inspiring.

    Martin's brilliant performance

    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.

    Touched my heart

    This movie deserves much better reviews. I've watched many holocaust movies and read many books about survivors of the holocaust. This is an excellent movie. I have watched it twice in one week. This movie, more than most I've seen, portrays the power of God. It is a real story about real people who survived to live successful lives. It is a story of God's love for all His people, Jew and Gentile. It is a story of their love for Him and for one another.

    Perhaps, having spent a month in Poland just west of the town where this happened...perhaps because I married a Polish man once....perhaps because I celebrated a Messianic Passover Seder when I was in Poland.... perhaps because my heart cried out for the hearts of the Polish people, most of whom did not do what Fusia and Helena did, when I was there...perhaps because my heart cries for the thousands upon thousands of Jews who were murdered by the Nazis...perhaps because I rode the train through the beautiful Polish country side from Katowice to Kracow and visited the ghetto area and the small museum in Kracow...perhaps because I rode the train into the mountains to the south... perhaps because the Polish people are beautiful and precious in God's sight. I don't know why, but this movie has really touched my heart.

    The Podgorski sisters have my undying love and appreciation. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Podgórski_sisters

    • Goofs
      After the Germans occupy Przemysl, trucks drive through the city announcing that "You are now citizens of the Third Reich". Areas of Poland that had been German prior to Word War I were annexed directly to the Reich. Przemysl however was not part of the Reich but of the "General Gouvernement" of occupied Poland. Poles in this area were not citizens but subjects, with no rights and subject to enslavement and eventual extermination.
