About this listen

Lilia is a gripping, cinematic true story of resilience and survival set against the backdrop of Mussolini’s fascist Italy and Hitler’s brutal occupation. Amidst war-torn chaos, a young girl and her family fight to endure unthinkable loss, betrayal, and the daily terror of Nazi rule. Stripped of childhood and forced to navigate an unforgiving world, Lilia clings to the only thing that cannot be taken from her—hope.

Where there is love, hope remains.

Through the eyes of a courageous girl, this harrowing yet deeply moving saga unfolds with rich historical detail and a deeply human core. Set against the backdrop of World War II and the Holocaust, Lilia brings to life the gripping true story of a family whose unbreakable bond defies war, loss, and betrayal. From poverty and upheaval to the daily fear of Nazi occupation, Lilia’s childhood is stolen, her family’s survival uncertain. Witnessing her parents’ desperate fight to stay alive becomes her greatest sorrow—one she conceals behind quiet resilience.

Yet even in the darkest times, a flicker of hope remains. Years after the war has ended, an unexpected encounter reignites the possibility of a new beginning.

An unforgettable story destined for the screen, Lilia is a powerful testament to the indomitable spirit of the human heart. This poignant account will transport you to a lost moment in history and stay with you long after you finish listening.

An inspirational story that’s changing lives—experience it now.
