Johanna is a 14-year-old Jewish girl who lives in Hamburg,
Germany, in the early 18th century. She feels stifled by the
daily drudgery of her life and dreams of seeing what lies
outside the confines of the Jewish quarter. Johanna lies about
her identity and gets a job as a caregiver at an orphanage.
Until it's too late, she doesn't realize a secret experiment is
taking place that results in the deaths of babies.
Deciding to kidnap one of the orphans, Johanna sets off for
Amsterdam. She faces many dangers on her journey, including plague,
bandits, storms and, not least of all, anti-Semitism. Johanna has a
lot of courage and determination, but will it be enough to save the
baby and reach her destination? Will she finally find a place where
she can be free?
