Movie at the Library: No. 4 Street of Our Lady

Celebrate the season of peace and brotherly love by viewing the multiple award-winning film No. 4 Street of Our Lady on Tuesday, December 13th, at 6 p.m. at the Cora J. Belden Library.

If your neighbors were being hunted down and came to your door begging for help, would you risk your life to save theirs? This film tells the remarkable true, yet little known, story of Franciszka Halamajowa, a Polish-Catholic woman who rescued 16 of her Jewish neighbors during the Holocaust, while cleverly passing herself off as a Nazi sympathizer. Special guests Grazyna Kucharczyk and Jolanta Staron, local residents and granddaughters of Franciszka Halamajowa, will be on hand.
