A Rose in Winter

A Rose in Winter explores the life story of Edith Stein - 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. Told from the perspective of Michael Rosten, a journalist in the 1960s, the story follows Stein's courageous path in which she chose not to flee from Hitler and instead entered the Catholic Church to become a nun and then challenged the Church to stand up against the Holocaust. Edith Stein died valiantly in Auschwitz, 1942.
