This spring, join us as we celebrate the 80th anniversary of European Liberation, with the Muskegon premiere of Old Heart.

Adapted from Peter Ferry’s award-winning novel, Old Heart tells the story of Tom Johnson, an American soldier who is part of the Allied liberation of the Southern Netherlands in the fall of 1944. He works with a Jewish translator, Sarah van Praag, to smuggle food and supplies to starving residents of northern cities trapped behind Nazi lines. They also fall in love.

Sixty years later, in the summer of 2005, Tom foils his family’s plan to move him to an assisted living facility by taking a flight to the Netherlands. He is determined to find Sarah again, the love of his life. 

Old Heart is unrated and suitable for children 12 and older. There are no war scenes or violence in this film. For more information please email the producer at rogerdrapoport@me.com
