The Ghetto
Coming soon!
Dedicated to the arts, he never expected to confront Nazis. When everything is stripped from them, will he and his beloved stand and fight?
1939, Warsaw, Poland. Jakub Rosen dreams of uniting Jews and Poles in friendship. Head-over-heels in love with a Christian actress, the Jewish film producer wants to believe they can overcome family opposition, deep-rooted antisemitism, and jealous rivals. But his gentle idealism cracks when he loses her to a forced engagement… and shatters as German forces invade and seal his people behind walls of bricks and barbed wire of the Warsaw Ghetto.
As starvation takes hold and the deportations commence, Jakub's heart receives another blow when the woman he adores joins the resistance and is hunted by a black marketeer. And though he yearns for creative expression, the introspective young man takes a stand against the erasure of his entire world by learning the art of combat.
Can Jakub inspire Jews and Poles to unite against hate and tyranny?
