Walking with the Enemy — Hungary
Hungarian Jew Elek Cohen impersonates an Arrow Cross officer in 1944 Budapest to rescue Jews from deportation — based on the true story of Pinchas Tibor Rosenbaum.
Hungary's Jews were largely protected until March 1944, when Germany occupied the country. The Arrow Cross seized power in October 1944 and immediately began mass killings. In this environment, Pinchas Tibor Rosenbaum impersonated SS and Arrow Cross personnel to rescue hundreds of Jews. Hungary's 500,000 Jews were deported to Auschwitz in 56 days in 1944 — the fastest deportation of the Holocaust.
