Hidden in Silence

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.

High recommend for Catholics, Jews, teens, Germans, Russians, you name it, this story is just unbelievable. I remember when I was 17 and thought I had a hard life under papa's regime and working two jobs and taking advanced classes, etc.

How impressive is this girl and her sister to help so many and demonstrate fearlessness. I know it is easier when you trust life more at this age but, wow talk about going the extra mile.

I had tears at the end, knowing it could possibly be happy was unexpected. The negative reviews have valid pov's but overall a grain of sand in the desert.

What a message for humanity. Thank You!!

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

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")

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
