Sarah's Key
Sarah, a 10 year old, hides her younger brother from authorites. She locks him in a hidden closet and tells him to stay there until she returns. Her parents and her are then transported to Velodrome d'Hiver, where they are held inhuman. On the transport she takes the key with her that she locked her brother in with. The parents are then deported to Aushwitz leaving Sarah with a friend named Rachel.
Her and Rachel try to escape when they are spoted by a Paris police guard who later lets them out. When at a farm Rachel is close to dying so when these farmers call the doctor the Germans come out and look for another Jewish girl. Until the doctors carry for Rachel's dead body out.
When Sarah finally returns to her house their is a 12 year old boy who answers. But she runs strait to her room and when she unlocks the closet her brother is dead. When older and married with a son Sarah commits suicide.
I love how this little girl would stick up and try to help her little brother out! I was hoping her brother would be alive yet and have a happy ending but instead it's really sad!!
