The story

In 1942, 10-year-old Sarah Starzynski hides her younger brother from French police by locking him in a secret closet and telling him to stay there until she returns. She takes the key with her when she and her parents are transported to the Vélodrome d'Hiver, where they are held in inhuman conditions by the Paris Police and French Secret Service. The deportees are transferred to the French-run Beaune-la-Rolande internment camp.
