In the heart of glittering 1930s Berlin, Lena is a beautiful Jewish cellist with blonde hair and Aryan looks. But when illicit love threatens the safety of her family, she is propelled on a journey that will put her courage and humanity o the greatest test. Hidden within four walls, she tells her remarkable story of music, love and light in a time of terrible darkness.
