A revealing odyssey of war, its immediate aftermath, and the long years in exile are seen through the sensitive eyes of a Polish Catholic girl whose first memory is of a chilling encounter with the SS. At the heart of the story lies the relentless courage of Marta, the girl's mother, who is left alone with two children. Her husband has departed to fight against the simultaneous German and Soviet invasions of Poland in September 1939. Against all odds and under incredible pressure, Marta struggles to protect her children during the horrors of the twentieth century's most destructive and inhumane war. After the war, the family fights to find one another and reunite despite the repressive Communist regime in Poland. A breathtaking escape leads to joy and sorrow as they try to find a place to call their own in a redefined world.
