One night in Berlin, 1943, during an SS raid, a German cabaret singer opens her door to save a Jewish Resistance fighter. As the hours unfold, destiny winds their lives tightly together until there is no turning back. 'When Yellow Were the Stars on Earth' is about two rarely examined realities: Jewish female fighters and Germans who died refusing to be part of the Nazi machinery. Amidst the atrocities of WWII, these women transcend enemy lines and, in their final moments, make an ultimate sacrifice for love.
