Oversteegen

August 21st at 7:00PM

Based on a true story, Oversteegen follows the lives of Freddie and Truus Oversteegen, who were just 14 and 16 when they joined the Dutch Haarlem resistance against Nazi Germany. Later joined by Hannie Schaft, the trio take on jobs smuggling intelligence to the Allied powers, aiding Jewish families in their escapes, and seducing and killing Nazi men. Together they struggle with the reality of what they’ve been asked to do, living with the constant threat of being discovered, and desperately trying to keep true to themselves. Oversteegen is a story about sisterhood, resilience, and resistance.
