Nazi hunter Ezra Lieberman (Laurence Olivier) is aghast when he
stumbles upon a plot by war criminal Josef Mengele (Gregory Peck)

dictator's body. It is Mengele's intention to reproduce Hitler not

possible to the Fuhrer's.

1960s British drama following the attempts of a convent of nuns to
rescue Jewish children from an interment camp in WWII Italy. The
nuns and their priest, Father Desmaines (Michael Goodliffe), see it
as their Christian duty to do what they can to save the children
from the horror of the camp. Thanks to the generosity of the
facility's commanding officer, Major Vittorio Spoletti (Ronald
Lewis), who turns a blind eye, the enterprise hasn't been too
dangerous so far. However, when the Germans, led by Colonel Erich
Horsten (Albert Lieven), begin taking a greater interest, both
Spoletti and the nuns find themselves in grave danger.
