Odette

The Dramatic Story of a Woman's Courage!

This film tells the true story of Odette Sansom, a French-born agent of the Special Operations Executive. Captured by the Germans in 1943, she was condemned to death and sent to Ravensbrück concentration camp for execution. Against all odds, she survived the war and testified against the prison guards at the Hamburg Ravensbrück Trials. In 1946 she was awarded the George Cross, becoming the first woman to receive it and the only woman to be given the award while still alive.
