In occupied Poland during 1939, nurse Irena Gut (Sophie Nélisse) defies the Nazi regime by sheltering a dozen Jewish refugees, risking her own life. Assigned to manage the home of a Nazi commandant (Dougray Scott), instead of choosing safety, Gut bravely protects those in danger.
Adapted from Dan Gordon's stage play and directed by Louise Archambault, "Irena's Vow" portrays a tale of moral clarity amidst the resurgence of fascism. Nélisse's compelling performance captures the fear and determination of an innocent forced into impossible choices, emphasizing the urgency of resistance and compassion in wartime.
