‘A ROSE IN WINTER’ exquisitely explores the truth behind Edith Stein’s life as one of the most compelling women in Judeo-Christian history, the first and only Jewish patron saint of Europe, and a fearless advocate for women’s rights. Unwilling to flee from Hitler’s death machine, Edith Stein chooses the path of staying in Germany, with “her people”, becoming a Carmelite nun, and challenging the Nazi regime, which leads to her martyrdom in Auschwitz. Edith’s enduring message in the film: LIVE THE LIFE THAT MOST FULFILLS YOU.
