Berlin 1936. Hitler will soon host the Olympics, and the streets are being “cleansed” of Jews and Romani “Gypsies”. A seven-year-old Roma girl hides in an old Weimar Club, concealed by dancer Katharina who plans to escape Nazism and take Hélène to America. Hélène won’t rest… Sneaking about, the little mouse sees everything – including the arrival of SS Hauptführer Otto, an awkward army conscript. Clumsily making a pass at Katharina, the junior officer is inches away from discovering the little mouse… Decisions have to be made fast, and only the child’s ingenuity will save her now…
