Hiding Edith tells the true story of Edith Schwalb. The Schwalb family were amongst the many Jewish families who fled their homes as Nazi power increased in the lead-up to World War II. Edith was sent to Moissac a small town in the south of France where the whole village kept the secret of a couple (Shatta & Bouli Simon) who ran a children's home in the area & protected the identity of the Jewish children who stayed there. Eventually the home is forced to close & Edith experiences many other dangers surviving to tell her tale. Kathy Kacer captures the spirit of young Edith in this dramatic & moving account of Edith's personal experience during World War II.
