00:19passion and circumstance, each embarking on her own dangerous path toward survival, love
00:24and freedom in German-occupied, war-torn France, a heartbreakingly beautiful novel that celebrates
00:31the resilience of the human spirit and the durability of women, the book's summary explained.
00:36The Fanning sisters expressed excitement in a joint statement.

00:47front of a camera.
