If you Save a Life, you Save the World - Heroes in the Holocaust
Overview of the tour in Budapest
1944 Budapest. The Soviet advance was irremediable, and the encirclement of the city had begun.
Hitler's order is clear: fight until the last bullet. Gangs of the Arrowcross party are spreading fear and terror all across. There is only one thing that can save the lives in the ghettos: A miracle.
The miracle happened when no one expected it. People with the most different backgrounds stood together, risked, and sacrificed their own lives to help the Jews.
