One of history’s most consequential and under-recognised Jewish women, Henrietta Szold left an indelible mark on the 20th century with her compassionate leadership founded on equality. In 1912, Henrietta Soldz established Hadassah, forging a vital link between American woman and communities in Palestine and spearheading the region’s first modern healthcare system, built upon a mandate that Jewish and Arab patients would be treated equally. Her crowning achievement came later, when she created Youth Aliyah and successfully rescued 11,000 Jewish children from Germany and Nazi-occupied Europe in the 1930s and transported them to safety in Palestine. This powerful documentary by Peabody award-winner Abby Ginzberg brings a compassionate new insight to a woman who reshaped history and become mother and mentor to thousands of young Jews with her rare blend of logistical genius, hands-on dedication and an unwavering belief in the power of humanity. Key Quotes: “Through archival footage, intimate letters, and firsthand reflections lifted by Tovah Feldshuh’s stirring narration, this film honors a trailblazer whose moral clarity, courage, and humanity continue to echo today.” – Director Abby Ginzberg Festival Appearances/Awards: San Francisco Jewish Film Festival 2025 – Official Selection Miami Jewish Film Festival 2026 – Official Selection
