In a world of great division and growing antisemitism, Passage To Sweden is an inspiring film highlighting solidarity, courage, and humanity. Focusing on the events occurring in Scandinavia and Budapest during WWII, this unfamiliar chapter in history tells the story of the heroic actions of ordinary people and nations who protected and saved the lives of thousands of Jews.
After the film screening, please, stay for a conversation with director, producer, and editor Suzannah Warlick.
