The Lady in the Black Dress
Synopsis
Ada Sereni was the only woman to lead the secret organization dedicated to clandestine Jewish immigration from Italy to Mandatory Palestine. Through her skill, courage, and determination, the organization grew, secretly bringing thousands of Holocaust survivors to Israel on clandestine immigration ships.
Yet, Ada was erased from the pages of history. This film places her at the center of the historical narrative—where she rightfully belongs.
