Featuring Marthe Cohn
The extraordinary story of Marthe Cohn, who joined the French Resistance as a feisty young woman during WWII. After her family fled south and her sister was sent to Auschwitz, Marthe posed as a nurse, using her German accent and blond hair to slip behind enemy lines and gather vital intelligence. Silent for 60 years, she later lectured worldwide with joie de vivre and hope until her death at 105.
