Here under the working title "Hannah Senesh." Based on two books: "Hanna Senesh, Her Life and Diaries" (Sphere Books, 1973) and "Un Vento Impetuoso Soffio," a memoir by Joel Palgi published only in Italian in 1950, then in English in 2003 under the title "Into the Inferno: The Memoir of a Jewish Paratrooper Behind Nazi Lines." The true story of Hanna Szenes (Senesh), a Hungarian-Jewish World War II resistance fighter, who would become Israel's "Joan of Arc." As a young person, she fled Nazi-occupied Hungary for Palestine, where she was recruited and trained by the British to serve as a commando. After completing her training in Britain, she parachuted into Yugoslavia with a commando team to establish escape routes across the Hungarian-Yugoslavian border for downed British pilots. Her attempts to save Hungarian Jews in Nazi-occupied Hungary, however, lead to her capture, torture and demise at the hands of the Gestapo and the Nazi-controlled Hungarian police. Set in Europe and British Palestine, filmed on location in Hungary and Israel. Lacking wrappers.
