Based on true events, this film retells the story of the 1942 ‘Vélodrome d’Hiver round up’ which saw the mass arrest of 13,000 Jews in occupied Paris by the French Police before they were deported to concentration camps in Eastern Europe. These historical events are seen through the eyes of a boy and a nurse.
