Caught Between Two Devils

Caught Between Two Devils is based on the real-life experiences of Antanas Paskevicius, his wife Jadwyga, and his sister Maria. In April of 1944, their lives were forever altered when they were sent to a work camp in northeast Germany where they struggled for ten months. Despite the risk of betrayal, torture, and death, they managed to stage a daring escape from the work camp, stealing a Wehrmacht truck in February 1945 and, along with other prisoners, fleeing the camp and heading for Bavaria.

The struggles of Antanas, Jadwyga and Maria are not unique; there were six million foreign prisoners compelled to work for the Third Reich.
