Beschreibung
Story of Recha Sternbuch, a young Swiss mother who enlisted the aid of the Papal Nuncio, the Polish ambassador, and Latin American diplomats to rescue Jews. She organized informers and 'smugglers,' whose cargo was human lives. She fought the Swiss bureaucracy -- and was put on trial for her trouble.
