Omschrijving

She had just handed over her only child to a stranger, whom…she didn't know and whose details she had been unable to learn.

In the darkest days of the Nazi occupation of Amsterdam, Lilian faces an unimaginable choice: surrender her newborn baby to a complete stranger or risk both their lives in a brutal prison camp. Hoping to save her child's future, she makes the ultimate sacrifice and watches as her baby is carried away in another's arms.

Against all odds, Lilian is released. Desperate and hopeful, she embarks on a relentless search for her lost baby, only to find that the trail has gone cold. Her fruitless quest leaves deep scars on all involved, their lives forever altered as they each struggle to untangle a web of misfortunes and misgivings that will ultimately come to define them.

The Surrender is a sweeping, multi-generational drama that explores the enduring consequences of choices made under duress. In a single moment of sacrifice, the fates of multiple family lineages are sealed, destined to endlessly grapple with inherited secrets, fractured identities and a longing for connection. Can Lilian's descendants ever overcome the past or will they be forever defined by her surrender?
