Features: In the summer of 1940, nineteen-year-old Polish boy Jesse was imprisoned in Auschwitz concentration camp by the German Nazis; there, he met, fell in love with, and loved a Jewish girl named Hila. In 1944, the clever Jesse stole Nazi uniforms and passes, successfully escaping the hell of this human-made with Hila. After returning to the countryside, Hila hid in a farmer's house, Jesse joined the guerrillas, and the two lost contact from then on. In 1983, while running a jewelry store in the United States, Hila occasionally learned about Jesse from her Polish maid, and thus this couple who had loved each other through hardship reunited after being apart for forty years.
