A Story Based On Actual Events That Occurred During World War II
Oscar, Emmy and Golden Globe-winning actress Christine Lahti (Swing Shift, Running on Empty) stars in this true-life account of Hungarian gynecologist Dr. Gisella Perl, who survived the Holocaust by working as the head of the women's infirmary at Auschwitz - a fact that lands her in serious political trouble when she emigrates to the United States in 1946. Bruce Davison, Jonathan Cake, Richard Crenna, and Beau Bridges costar in this thoughtful fact-based drama from director Joseph Sargent (Bojangles, Miss Evers' Boys).
