Miracle at Moreaux is a 1985 Canadian made-for-television drama film based on the novel Twenty and Ten by Claire Huchet Bishop.
The film stars Loretta Swit as the main character of Sister Gabrielle, and was co-written and directed by Paul Shapiro.
However, his raid proves untimely, as Nazi officers arrive to tell the convent that roads in the area are being closed off to prevent possible escapes across the nearby border.
In a quick act of thinking, Sister Gabrielle grabs the girl and pretends she is one of the convent's students, carrying her inside.
The Jewish children remain in the school while the Nazis that are patrolling the area, led by an SS Major (Robert Joy), hunt for them in the woods surrounding the convent.
