A gripping tale of survival, The Hidden Child tells the story of a six-year-old girl and her sister, separated from their parents, dodging bullets, lying for survival and relying on the compassion of strangers who risked their own lives to save Jewish children. Today, Dahme devotes her life to the Holocaust and genocide education. Issues such as tolerance, mutual respect and understanding are explored in depth in the documentary as well as in an accompanying teacher guide developed by New Jersey educators for classroom use.

The team included Sara Lee Kessler senior producer, writer and host; Lisa Bair Miller, producer and editor; and Ron Wagner, NJN cameraman.
