In wartime Amsterdam, a young woman goes to therapy. This is Etty Hillesum. At the age of 27, driven by a profound desire for life, Etty embarks on a spiritual and emotional journey, all chronicled in her diaries. In them, she unfolds her turbulent love affair with the psycho-chirologist Julius Spier, a relationship that becomes the catalyst for a radical inner transformation—one that deepens as the dangers surrounding her as a Jewish woman intensify, ultimately leading her to an enormous act of solidarity.
