Brothers on the Run: Fleeing Hitler, Fighting Franco

Based on a true story, Brothers on the Run takes you on a high-velocity ride across pre-World War II Europe. In 1933, two teenage Jewish brothers barely escape death at the Nazis' hands, only to find themselves crisscrossing Europe as refugees whose survival depends on their luck, daring, and wits. In 1936, when the US denies them entry, the boys enlist as foreign soldiers in the Spanish Civil War--a fateful decision that indelibly scars them, brutally delivers them into manhood, and serendipitously opens the door to freedom.
