Beschrijving
An account of Father Marie-Benoit who helped rescue thousands of French and Italian Jews during the war. Marie-Benoit first operated out of Marseilles, and later headed a Roman agency organized clandestinely to rescue Jews. The priest did not use physical force, but rather resorted to forged documents and passports and the use of churches as hiding places.
