About this item

Una tierna y conmovedora historia de esperanza inspirada en un episodio real de la Segunda Guerra Mundial. Italia, verano de 1942. Cuarenta niños judíos llegan a la estación de Nonantola, cerca de Módena. Han escapado de la Alemania nazi y, ahora, instalados en una villa de las afueras del pueblo, sienten que lo peor ha pasado. Entre ellos se encuentra Natan, quien inicialmente ve con recelo toda esa atención. Las imágenes de su padre, sacado de casa a rastras en mitad de la noche, de la despedida de su madre y de su hermano pequeño, aún arden en su memoria. Sin embargo, en Villa Emma no hay estrellas amarillas en los abrigos, ni guetos, ni redadas nocturnas. Este parece ser un mundo totalmente nuevo. Un mundo en el que los campesinos les llevan comida, los leñadores fabrican sus camas y cada uno puede contribuir con su trabajo. Hasta que las tropas nazis comienzan a acampar en Nonantola y para los chicos llega el momento de organizar una nueva huida. Sin embargo, esta vez no están solos, esta vez tienen a todo un pueblo luchando por ellos. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION A sweet and moving story of hope, inspired by true events from World War II. Italy, summer of 1942. Forty Jewish children arrive at Nonantola station, near Modena. They have escaped Nazi Germany and now, settled in a villa on the outskirts of town, they feel the worst is over. Among them is Natan, weary of all this attention from the start. Images of his father, dragged out of their home in the middle of the night, of his mother’s farewell, and of his little brother still burn in his memory. However, in Villa Emma there are no yellow stars on their coats, no ghettos, no night raids. This seems to be an entirely new world. A world in which farmers bring them food, woodmen make them beds, and everyone contributes their work. Until Nazi troops camp in Nonantola and it’s time for the children to organize a new escape. But this time they are not alone. This time they have an entire village fighting for them.
