Perlasca: The Courage of a Just Man

The true story of Giorgio Perlasca, an Italian cattle dealer and avowed fascist who — trapped in Nazi-occupied Budapest after Italy's armistice with the Allies — nevertheless saved more than 5,000 Hungarian Jews from the Holocaust through a combination of lies, bribery and derring-do.
