Catholic nuns risk their lives to help Jewish children in an Italian internment camp escape to Palestine during World War II.

In wartime Italy nuns in a convent regularly smuggle Jewish children out of a nearby internment camp. The Italian army officer in charge suspects what may be going on but deliberately turns a blind eye. When the Germans take over the camp security the nuns' activities become far more dangerous.—Jeremy Perkins {J-26}
