Dounia reluctantly tells granddaughter Elsa about how her parents hid her when they were arrested and sent to concentration camps. The gentile couple in the apartment downstairs took her in, but had to separate and run with Mrs. Pericard taking Dounia, now masquerading as a daughter named Simone. They hide with Resistance people in the countryside until reunited with Mr. Pericard. Returned at last to Paris, the Pericards search for Dounia's parents. They find her mother, emaciated and sick, but the father, "like many who went to the camps," never comes home.
