Adélaïde Hautval was a free spirit, a born resister who devoted her life to serving others, refusing any form of compromise. Born in 1906 in Alsace, she became a psychiatrist and was deported to Auschwitz during the Second World War as a "friend of the Jews."

Upon returning to France, she upheld the values of humanity, which she placed above all else. Her unwavering commitment earned her the honor of becoming the first Alsatian to be recognized as Righteous Among the Nations—the highest distinction awarded by the State of Israel.

Through the places that shaped her extraordinary journey, her writings, and deeply moving testimonies, this film immerses us in the heroic life of an exceptional woman.
