The Orphan's Tale is a moving tale of friendship set in a travelling circus during World War II. It tells the terrifying tales of two remarkable women who made incredible sacrifices in order to survive.
After being forced to give up her kid and becoming pregnant by a Nazi soldier, sixteen-year-old Noa was banished in shame. She makes her living by cleaning the little train station above which she resides. Noa is reminded of the kid snatched from her when she comes onto a boxcar carrying several Jewish babies headed for an extermination camp. And then, in an instant that will forever alter her path, she grabs one of the infants and runs into the wintry night.
Noa seeks safety with a German circus; nevertheless, in order to blend in unnoticed and avoid Astrid, the main aerialist, she must master the flying trapeze act. Initially enemies, Noa and Astrid develop a strong friendship. But when their barrier of protection becomes more flimsy, Noa and Astrid will have to choose between saving each other via their relationship and letting their buried truths ruin everything.
