Ruta's Closet

Ruta's Closet is not only an exploration of a dark chapter in recent history, but also a celebration of the few people who risked their lives to save a persecuted group. Between the accounts of political extremism and evil acts, we read incredible stories of individuals willing to sacrifice everything to help their fellow man. The courage of the ordinary family who clandestinely adopted Ruta; the doctor who risked his life by performing a secret operation to save one man; the man who, under threat of his own death, brought food to the starving Kron family and others. The tales of heroism and bravery here are numerous and triumphant.
