Women took part in perilous resistance missions during World War II alongside a much larger number of male resistance agents. This presents the lives of eight women who chose to challenge the Third Reich. Their deeds with the resistance ranged from forging documents and hiding persecuted Jews to orchestrating sabotage operations and crafting a nonviolent protest movement within Nazi Germany itself.
