SYNOPSIS Stella, a young German Jewish girl, grows up in Berlin during the Nazi regime. Despite all the repression, she dreams of a career as an entertainer and jazz singer on Broadway. When she is forced into hiding in February 1943, her life becomes a tragedy. Captured and tortured by the Gestapo, she decides to betray her people to save herself and her parents from deportation to Auschwitz by becoming a 'Jew-hunter'.
