Courage and Grace Yoseph Komem

An unbelievable survival story in the face of the Holocaust

While the Holocaust rages, two very young brothers, Yoseph and Yitzhak, adopt false Christian identities and hide in the Aryan side of Polish cities and countryside.

Their lives, as well as the lives of their parents, swing wildly between the terror of being apprehended by the cruel regime and collaborators of the Reich, to their desperate need to continue living "freely" outside the ghetto walls.

They undergo an agonizing five and a half years, mostly in constant fear that their false identities will be exposed and their lives ended.

"Courage and Grace" is the chilling story of one small family's bid for survival against the brutal Nazi occupation, aided by the courageous, uncompromising support of non-Jewish acquaintances and strangers all the way through to their rebirth in the new State of Israel.
