Hungary 1944. Gertrud Lutz and her husband save 62 000 Jews from deportation. When you have done something like that, there is no going back: you become someone who lives to serve your fellow humans. After the war she devoted herself to the countries it had devastated. Then she turned to children in distress. In Brazil, in Turkey. Isn't it enough to have saved 62 000 people? Not for her. Not for her.
