I've now seen RTHP 3 times and have not changed a bit in how wonderful this film is and how I want so much for everyone to see it...not only to support this wonderful work, but also because the content and message is so meaningful and inspirational. Eve Roberts
"Return to the Hiding Place" is set in World War II Holland and is a story that beautifully compliments Corrie ten Boom's "The Hiding Place". It tells the moving story of Corrie's small "army" of untrained teenagers - Hans Poley, Piet Hartog, and their friends. Many scenes are actually filmed in Corrie's home.
If it has been a long time since you have seen a show that is touching, purposeful, full of action, love and sacrifice, then I think you will want to see this. On top of that, it is well written, has marvelous editing, and the film quality is beautiful!
If you are familiar with the life of Corrie ten Boom - and believe in what she and her family stood for - this would be another reason to add this to your "movie watching" list.
This story is a perfect example of what Michael D Evans would call "building a bridge of tangible love and understanding between Christians and Jews" - Corrie ten Boom, her family, Hans Poley, and many underground resistance organization members considered it an honor to stand up for and even die for God's chosen people.
I fully support this film and will recommend to everyone. Although it is PG-13, I believe you might consider allowing your mature student/child to watch. It is both inspirational and educational.
