A Love to Hide (2005)Un amour à taire
Paris, 1942 and Nazi Germany is tightening its grip on occupied France. Thousands of Jewish families are being sent to camps outside the city. Meanwhile, Jean is doing what he can to help his family get by. However, his greatest secret is also his biggest liability – his boyfriend Philippe has risky connections with forgery artists.

The couple agree to take her into hiding, but with the Nazis hot on their trail, they must do everything they can to avoid being sent to the camps. ‘A Love to Hide’ is a gripping portrayal of wartime prejudices and the lengths people will go to be reunited with their loved ones. - Director:
