About this listen
SOON TO BE A MAJOR MOTION PICTURE
Inspired by the history of the Danes and their Jewish neighbors who worked together to defy the Reich, Miracle Across the Sound is a story of bravery, love, and true freedom.
It is September 1943, and Jews are still free in German-occupied Denmark. But that is about to change.
Jewish college student Fleming Lund and his Lutheran former fiancée, Liesel Prestur, have not spoken since they ended their engagement. When Leisel witnesses the Gestapo hauling her Jewish neighbors from their home in the middle of the night, she sneaks off to warn the Lunds. Unbeknownst to her, Flem recently came to realize that Yeshua, the one she calls Jesus, is the Messiah and he sees her appearance on his doorstep as an answer to prayer.
Amidst Denmark's crumbling puppet government, Flem and Liesel renew their plans to marry. Sadly, that dream is postponed once again when they learn of Hitler's plot to round up Denmark's Jews in a midnight raid on Rosh Hashanah.
Woven into this fictional romance is the inspiring but little-known history of how in 1943, over the month of October, ordinary Danes smuggled nearly all their Jewish countrymen to freedom in Sweden.

Story
There were so many terrifying stories about the Jews. People called them useless vermin, filthy, dangerous. Before I met Abram, I was afraid of them, too. But I am about to tell you a very different story—a forbidden story. My love for Abram defied all reason...as well as German law. Tonight our son giggles with excitement as he blows out the candles on his birthday cake. But our safety is nothing but an illusion. As his candles burn out, a window shatters outside. The room shudders as the synagogue down the street is engulfed in flames.

An inspiring account from one of history’s darkest moments. Marione Ingram grew up in Hamburg, Germany, in the late 1930s and early 1940s. She was German. She was Jewish. She was a survivor. This is her story. As a young girl, Marione was aware that people of the Jewish faith were regarded as outsiders, the supposed root of Germany’s many problems. She grew up in an apartment building where neighbors were more than happy to report Jews to the Gestapo.

Jakub clings to the promise he made to his murdered father - to live, at any cost - and to the moments he is able to spend in the company of Anna, imprisoned in the women's camp.
