Description
Pasaje a la libertad is the Spanish edition of Passage to Freedom, the true story of the "Japanese Schindler" who saved thousands of Jews during World War II. In 1940, five-year-old Hiroki Sugihara, the son of the Japanese consul to Lithuania, saw from the consulate window hundreds of Jewish refugees. They had come to Hiroki's father with a desperate request: Could he write visas for them to escape the Nazi threat? When the Japanese government denied his requests, Hiroki's father turned to his family. This story chronicles their amazing act of humanity.
