Your name is Lisa and you are fifteen. You are living in a small town in German occupied France during the Second World War. You live with your parents and two younger siblings, Thomas (9 years old) and Rebecca (11 years old). Your father is the only local doctor and people in the village depend on him. It is late November 1943 when one of your school friends knocks on your bedroom window late one evening, just as you are about to fall asleep. You know his father has links to the anti-German resistance. He tells you that he has been sent by his father who knows of a Jewish family that has managed to elude the German police authorities, but needs to find a new safe house. Your family are respected and trusted by the local community as well as the German authorities, and the Jewish family has nowhere else to go. Will you shelter them? Holocaust Dilemma
