Irena's Vow Overview

In occupied Poland, a former nurse risks her life to shelter a dozen Jewish men and women from the Nazis.

Warsaw, 1939: when the Nazis invade Poland, nurse Irena Gut (Sophie Nélisse) is displaced and forced to work in support of the German war effort, eventually assigned to run the home of a Nazi commandant (Dougray Scott). Instead of following the path of least resistance and gambling on her status and ethnicity to keep her safe, Irene risks everything to save a dozen Jewish refugees from persecution and murder, sheltering them under her boss's nose. 

Adapted by Dan Gordon from his stage play.
