1944. Nineteen-year-old Hedy can't bear her country's neutrality in the face of the ultimate evil. This is not the Switzerland she loves, and she realises she cannot stand by without acting any longer. She joins a group smuggling Jewish children through the forest from France to refugee camps in Geneva. It's dangerous work - there are German patrols everywhere - but finally Hedy feels she is doing something worthwhile. Then one night in the forest she stumbles across a wounded American airman. Second Lieutenant Samuel Reardon was dropping supplies to the French resistance when his plane crashed. Despite the danger it will bring to her family, Hedy can't leave Samuel lost and injured, so she hides him in her father's hut. As Hedy and Samuel grow closer, so the dangers of their resistance work loom ever closer, and soon the pair must make the ultimate choice that will tear them apart. 2015.
