Details
Based on true events, Secret Delivery follows a group of children who discover a downed French pilot in the snowy Giant Mountains and embark on a mission to rescue him. Their actions resemble the principle of the well-known "telephone game" - the pilot is passed between mountain villages like a secret message - secret delivery - at school. But the children play a highly risky game. They are confronted by deadly soldiers of the occupying army, they must outwit traitors and informers and, last but not least, survive in the harsh conditions of winter in the mountains.

Director's Statement
“Why tell another story from the end of the WWII? Because it’s a children’s story about empathy, rebellion, joy, courage and hope at a time when the chance of survival sometimes depends only on luck. It’s one of those stories where children unite against the adult world in order to save someone. I think that such stories are needed especially today, when our kids are unexpectedly confronted with the proximity and impact of war on a daily basis.“
