- Synopsis
- Helena tells grandson Jeroen about the family's sufferings under Nazi rule. Wim fought in the Resistance, aided by Helena. Theo joined the German army and was killed. Mr Van Dort, a police officer, felt he had to collaborate to protect his family. This finally included helping round up Jewish neighbors, including Helena's best friend Esther. Helena assumes they all died, but Jeroen finds Esther, who reveals that while her family was lost, Hannah's father had delivered her to safety.
