Corrie ten Boom recounting her and her family's experiences before and during their imprisonment in a Naziconcentration camp duringthe Holocaust inWorld War II . As the Nazis invaded Holland, Corrie and her family allow Jews to hide in a part of their home that is specially remodeled by members of the Dutch resistance. However, the Nazis eventually discover that Corrie and her family are hiding Jews, and the family and their friends are arrested under the betrayal of a Dutch collaborator. The hidden Jews are never found. Corrie's father dies before he reaches the concentration camp, and Corrie worries that she will never see her home again. The Nazis send Corrie and her sister to theRavensbruck concentration camp in Germany for hiding Jews in their home. At the concentration camp, Corrie encourages her sister to remain hopeful that God will rescue them from the brutalities they experience. With little food and constant work, the women suffer constantly, and Corrie's sister, played byJulie Harris , dies. Ultimately, Corrie, played byJeanette Clift George , leaves the camp through what is discovered later to be a clerical error. Her life after this ordeal was dedicated to showing that the love of Jesus is greater than the deepest pit into which humankind finds itself. The Hiding Place was directed by James F. Collier.Jeanette Clift George received aGolden Globe nomination for Most Promising Newcomer - Female. [ [http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0073109/awards The Hiding Place (1975) IMDB.com] ] .ee also
