If you were inspired
by Corrie Ten Boom’s story as portrayed in The
Hiding Place, then you’ll surely love the movie Return to the Hiding Place.
Bases on Hans
Poley’s autobiography of the same name, the true story of Return to the Hiding place provides a more indepth look at what
Dutch Christians—including Corrie Ten Boom and her sister Betsy—did to rescue
Dutch Jews in Holland during the Holocaust.
Hans Poley and fellow
students are deeply disturbed by the horrific persecution of Nazis towards the
Jews. They cannot sit by and watch and so they turn their youthful zeal to form
their own Resistance Army—risking their own lives.
These untrained
young resistance fighters live clandestinely in Corrie Ten Boom’s home and embrace
dangerous challenges as they set out to rescue as many Dutch Jews as possible
from the Holocaust.
Return to the Hiding Place stresses positive values and shows how the
virtues of unity, endurance, perseverance and faith can change the course of
history. Interesting, inspiring and sobering at the same time.
The movie was directed
and produced by the father daughter team of Peter C. Spencer (Heroes of the
Titanic, Justice for the Wounded) and Petra Spencer Pearce (“Heroes of the
Faith”), and its prolific cast includes John Rhys-Davies (Indiana Jones, Lord
of the Rings), Craig Robert Young (“NCIS: LA,” “Hawaii Five-O”), David Thomas
Jenkins (“CSI: Miami,” “Bold and the Beautiful”), Rachel Spencer Hewitt (Fly by
Night, A Civil War Christmas) and Mimi Sagadin (The Dilemma).
