12:00 PM: Irena's Vow

Irena Gut Opdyke, played by Sophie Nelisse, sheltered one dozen Jewish men and women in the home of the Nazi officer, Edward Rugemer (Dougray Scott), where she was the housekeeper. This is the true story of a 19-year-old Polish nurse who made small, brave decisions, risking her life in order to do what she believed to be right. The film is based on the life of Irena Gut, who is honored as a righteous gentile at Yad Vashem.
