Sarah's Key

This is a Holocaust movie, so it will break your heart. 2 stories - one present and one past. Sarah is a young Jewish girl who is taken into custody by French police, who will hold her in a theatre with no water or toilets for days. Then take her and her family to a holding "prison" camp. Take her mother and father on a train to the ovens. A French policeman takes pity and lets her get away. This entire time - weeks - the girl as one goal in mind. It has to do with a key, but I can't tell you more. I get choked up thinking about it. The other story is a journalist who uncovers Sarah's story and how knowing affects how she lives her life. Quinn appears at the end and talk about endings - this one will make you cry. All in all, I say: YOU MUST SEE IT.
