"Life in a Jar: The Irena Sendler Project" by Jack Mayer
It is the inspirational story of Irena Sendler, a Catholic woman who knocked on Jewish doors in the Warsaw ghetto and, in Sendler's own words, "tried to talk the mothers out of their children." It is also the story of the students from Kansas who rediscovered her, each carrying her own painful burden and each called in her own complex way to spread the history of Irena Sendler.
