Narrated by Joan Allen, this documentary illuminates the story of Hannah Senesh, a Hungarian Jew who was living safely in Palestine in 1944 but made the brave--and fatal--choice to return to Europe. As a paratrooper and resistance fighter, the poet Senesh eventually gave her life in her goal of saving her fellow Jews from the Nazis. With help from the Senesh family and their archives, BLESSED IS THE MATCH recounts Senesh's amazing life.
