Irena Sendler, a Polish nurse, risked her life to save 2,500 Jewish children from the ghetto in Warsaw during the World War II. Four high school students in the US, having learned about Mrs. Sendler's heroic activities, decide to come to Poland to meet 92 year-old woman. She tells them about her wartime activities with modesty and humility, claiming she was not any hero at all.
