While Paris Slept: A mother in wartime Paris. A heartwrenching choice. A remarkable story.

'A deeply moving and story of love and sacrifice. Unmissable'
Sunday Express

Paris 1944
A young woman's future is torn away in a heartbeat.
Herded on to a train bound for Auschwitz, in an act of desperation she entrusts her most precious possession to a stranger.
All she has left now is hope.

Santa Cruz 1953
Jean-Luc thought he had left it all behind.
The scar on his face a small price to pay for surviving the Nazi occupation.
Now, he has a new life in California, a family.
He never expected the past to come knocking on his door.

On a darkened platform, two destinies become entangled.
Their choice will change the future in ways neither could have imagined.
