19 year old Irena Gut is promoted to housekeeper in the home of a highly respected Nazi officer in Poland when she finds out that the Jewish ghetto is about to be liquidated. Determined to help twelve Jewish workers, she decides to shelter them in the safest place she can think of – the basement of the German Major's house. Over the next eight months, Irena uses her wit, humour and immense courage to hide her friends as long as possible.

First “The Book Thief” and now this—I must say that Sophie Nélisse is well suited to WWII dramas, but then she’s a really talented young actress!

I just viewed Irena's Vow here in Canada 🇨🇦. This film is a powerful testament to the human spirit, beautifully capturing the transformative impact of forgiveness and its ability to inspire positive change in all who watch it. 💖 I was deeply moved and highly recommend it to everyone!

I wonder how many university students around the world will watch and learn?
