1942 in Helsinki. The state of Finland has made an alliance with Nazi Germany. One man alone is trying to stop the Finnish security services which were operating in secrecy, to turn over Jewish refugees into the hands of Gestapo.

Never Alone

It’s 1942 in Helsinki, and Jews are desperately seeking refuge and safety in Finland. As Nazi influence grows, the Finnish-Jewish businessman Abraham Stiller (Ville Virtanen, Netflix’s Bordertown) risks everything to grant access and secure protection for the men, women, and children facing near-certain death. This powerful true story, told by legendary Finnish director Klaus Härö, showcases courage, resilience, and a fight for hope against overwhelming adversity.
