In the organizer's words:
Accompanying program in cooperation with the Jewish Museum on the occasion of the current exhibition 'Natalia Romek Architectures of Survival'
Screening in the original English version with German subtitles
19-year-old Polish woman Irena Gut is a housekeeper in the home of a high-ranking Wehrmacht officer when she learns that the ghetto has been dissolved. Without further ado, she hides twelve Jewish people in the safest place she can think of: the cellar of the German Major Eduard Rügmer, for whom she works. Over the next two years, Irena uses her cunning and courage to hide her new friends and provide them with everything they need. Among those rescued were Ida and Lazar Haller, Roman Haller's parents. In 1982, he met his parents' lifesaver. Irena Gut Opdyke (1922-2002) was honored as Righteous Among the Nations in 1982.
