概要
June 1940. France is falling. Thirty thousand refugees are trapped in Bordeaux with nowhere to run—and one Portuguese diplomat has been ordered to let them die.
Aristides de Sousa Mendes was the perfect bureaucrat: thirty years of faithful service, a career built on following orders. But when thousands of desperate families lined up outside his consulate—Jews fleeing the Gestapo, dissidents with death warrants, children who would never see another sunrise—he faced an impossible choice.
Defy his government and destroy everything he'd built. Or stamp the forms "denied" and go home to dinner.
In three sleepless days, Mendes signed thirty thousand visas. His signature grew shorter with each hour—from the formal flourish of a diplomat to a barely legible scrawl. His hair turned white. And when his own government dragged him home in disgrace, he never apologized.
This is the story of what it costs to say yes when the whole world is designed to say no.
