The Melody of the Soul   A Nazi officer. A Jewish Czech violinist. Her music haunts him. When he's faced with losing it, he'll go through any length to save it. And her. It's 1943 and Anna Zadok, a Jewish Christian living in Prague, has lost nearly everything. Most of her family has been deported, and the Nazi occupation ended her career as a concert violinist. Now Anna is left to care for her grandmother, and she'll do anything to keep her safe-a job that gets much harder when Nazi officer Horst Engel is quartered in the flat below them.

When Anna and her grandmother face deportation, Horst risks everything to protect them.  Anna finds herself falling in love with the handsome officer and his brave heart. But what he reveals might stop the music forever. Watch the trailer f...
