Angel: A Nightmare of the Holocaust creates gripping drama out of the true stories of Nazi concentration-camp guard Irma Grese and Holocaust survivor Olga Lengyel.The sadistic young Grese, known as "The Beautiful Beast" and "The Blonde Angel of Auschwitz", faces trial in 1945 at the tender age of 22 for her vicious torture and killing of inmates at Bergen-Belsen and elsewhere. But when the British army major prosecuting the case finds himself caught under Grese's seductive spell, it's up to former Auschwitz-Birkenau prisoner Lengyel to teach the lawyer a lesson in dignity and survival.
