A Gay Jewish Resistance Leader in Nazi Berlin

Gad Beck was a gay, Jewish 19 year old living in Berlin when the Nazis came to power. Not a good situation! But Beck managed to mess with the Nazis, leading the largest resistance group in Nazi Berlin and ultimately saving 36 hidden Jews in the city. And better yet, he did it all through being sharp, through making friends, and by sleeping with a lot of people. Learn his story, including the heart-breaking moment when Beck used astonishing chutzpah to save his great love, Manfred Lewin, only to have Lewin sacrifice his life to help his family on their trip to Auschwitz. This may be the most astonishing World War II hero story you'll ever hear. And yes, we know, it ought to be a movie!--we're working on it....
