The story

In 1942, 10-year-old Sarah Starzynski hides her younger brother from French police by locking him in a secret closet and telling him to stay there until she returns.

When Sarah tries to escape with her friend Rachel, a sympathetic Paris police guard spots them.

The officer begins a search for the second child, only to be interrupted when the French physician carries out the dead body of Rachel.
