Poland June 1941, as German troops take over the Eastern side of the city of Przemysl from the Russians. To save their belongings from the Nazis, the Jewish family Diamant transfers them to their 17-year-old Catholic maid Fusia. In return Fusia provides them with food until the ghetto is dissolved, and then hides 13 people in her loft for over two years. However, as the front approaches and two German nurses take quarter in Fusias apartment everything seems to be in vain. (fonte: Imdb)

Przemysl, 1941. La cittadina Polacca, fino ad allora per metà sotto controllo sovietico, viene tutta quanta occupata dai nazisti. Gli ebrei sono immediatamente reclusi in un ghetto. La Polacca Stefania prende la decisione di nascondere ben 13 ebrei in una soffitta. Giorno dopo Giorno, col rischio sempre presente di essere tutti quanti scoperti e fucilati, la donna tiene protette tutte queste persone.
