Armed only with his bravery and moral courage, Raoul Wallenberg saved tens of thousands of Jews from the Holocaust. It's a story that has inspired the world.

This is a true story of great heroism in the face of brutality and mass-murder. In a few brief months in 1944, a young man named Raoul Wallenberg saved an estimated 100,000 Jewish people.
The Second World War had been raging for nearly five years when Wallenberg's mission began. Över five million Jewish people had already been murdered, when Raoul Wallenberg volunteered to leave the safety of his rich home in neutral Sweden to do what he could to help the trapped Jews of Hungary.
When he arrived in the capital, Budapest, he found himself up against Adolf Eichmann, the head of the Nazi death squads. Eichmann was one of the most notorious mass- murderers of all time.
Armed with nothing but his wits, Wallenberg worked with incredible energy and bravery to protect the people in danger, regardless of his own safety. His achievement in outwitting Eichmann is one of the most amazing stories of the Second World War.
