While subjected to the horrors of WWII Germany, young Liesel finds solace by stealing books and sharing them with others. Under the stairs in her home, a Jewish refugee is being sheltered by her adoptive parents.
Lush, melancholic imagery captures the fragile beauty of a childhood blooming amidst the shadows of Nazi Germany. Words become a desperate lifeline as a young girl finds sanctuary in stolen pages and the quiet courage of a hidden guest.
