Return to the Hiding Place movie

www.hide-movie.com

Return to the Hiding Place is based on the true story of Corrie ten Boom (Mimi Sagadin) and her realization that the Nazis will overtake Holland and create the destruction of every Jew. Her solution is to form an army comprised of untrained teenagers.When resistance fighter Piet Hartog (Craig Robert Young) witnesses atrocities toward the Jews, he is drawn by his beautiful love Aty (Rachel Spencer Hewitt) and her Aunt Corrie into the web of espionage and clandestine activities in the Hiding Place, where he joins brilliant young physics student and resistance journalist, Hans Poley (David Thomas Jenkins), embarking on a nonstop, action-packed hunt through underground tunnels, Gestapo hijacks, daring rescues, codes in windswept old windmills, and stunning miracles in one of history’s most famous dramas. Piet, Hans, and their friends navigate a deadly labyrinth of challenges to rescue God’s people in their modern-day panicked exodus from death. Climaxing in the true, breath-taking rescue of an entire orphanage of Jewish children marked for mass execution by Hitler’s assassins, audiences will both cheer and weep at this exciting, sobering tale.
