Violin of Hope
Based on the true story of luthiers who repair Holocaust-era violins.
Papa plays beautiful music on the violin, sometimes quick and lively and sometimes slow and sorrowful. But one night, there is a pounding on the door and a Nazi soldier snatches the violin away. The violin is silent for years until a luthier finds it and says, “I can fix you.” Then a man comes to the shop and buys the violin for his son. In the boy’s hands, the violin feels familiar, like a melody remembered from long ago.
