In the chaotic WW II years, the civilised chairman of the Jewish Council (Pierre Bokma) faces unmanageable dilemmas. Will he opt for saving his own life or for integrity? Featuring Claire Bender as his daughter, in a drama series that bagged the Silver Nipkow Disc.
During the years 1940-45, from no other country in western Europe more Jews were deported than the Netherlands. How could this happen? Why did the Dutch authorities and the members of the Jewish Council cooperate so obediently on these atrocities? And how did the Nazi occupiers manage to persuade the Dutch authorities and the Dutch Jews? This five-part drama series depicts the unimaginable dilemmas the German occupier confronted the Jewish community with.
