"In
spite of the fact that they live in Nazi-occupied Denmark in
1943, best friends Annemarie and Ellen enjoy school and playing
together. But life takes a dramatic shift when the Nazis decide
to relocate the Jews. Racing against time, Annemarie must do
what she can to help her Jewish friend Ellen escape the
