As Nazi troops invade Poland, a young boy from Krakow named Romek (Haley Joel Osment) is given to friends by his parents, who smuggle him out of town in hopes of saving him from the advancing armies. A priest (Willem Dafoe) of the neighbourhood's church becomes aware of Romek's secret, and is sympathetic to the boy's problems, so, in secret, he coaches Romek in basic catechism, while remaining mindful of the lad's Jewish heritage.
But while Romek is getting better at fooling others into believing he's Catholic, he can't escape the signs of the devastation that the Nazi onslaught has wrought against his people.
