Sugihara: Conspiracy of Kindness (2000)
103 min
In the dark early days of World War II, Japanese diplomat Chiune Sugihara used his power (defying Tokyo's express orders) to rescue Jewish refugees in Lithuania. More than 2,000 Sugihara-stamped passports allowed hundreds of families to flee to safe havens abroad. Through unprecedented access to Sugihara's family and their personal home movies, photos and papers, the heroism of this man is brought to light.
