In 2001 American schoolgirls who had written a play about a Polish woman rescuing Jewish children came to Poland, and Irena Sendler, long forgotten, became a heroine overnight. Rescue needed a system, money and people ready to risk their lives. Sendler emerges slowly from among those bound by a shared fate, rescuers and rescued, in a story of remarkable women and the hundreds of children they saved.
