Besa Presentation and Documentary- Enemy of the Reich: The Noor Inayat Khan Story (2014)

This docu-drama brings to life the story of a young Muslim woman's extraordinary courage tested in the crucible of Nazi-occupied Paris.

Noor Inayat Khan, a Sorbonne-educated musician and author, began her assignment as a covert agent with the Special Operations Executive working with the French Resistance. Khan resisted brutal interrogation by the Gestapo, escaping twice, only to be recaptured and sent to Germany where she was executed at the Dachau concentration camp.

Join Dr. Shrabani Basu, author of Princess: The Life of Noor Inayat Khan and principal of the Noor Inayat Khan Memorial Trust, for an introduction of the doumentary, a discussion of the life and legacy of Noor Inayat Khan, and questions and answers. Dr. Basu will be joining us live from London, England.
