Plot

As a teenager, Hanny Londt-Shultz, together with her family, faced a grinding daily routine in a Japanese internment camp in Sumatra during WWII. But through the recognition of small miracles, the members of the Londt-Shultz family, though damaged, endure, and in spite of life-threatening challenges become saviors among their peers and courageous examples to their captors.
