- Synopsis
You’ve heard of Oskar Schindler. But David Kaufmann? Almost no one has.
He wasn’t a spy or a soldier. He ran a five-and-dime in a dusty Nebraska town. Yet when his family and friends back in Nazi Germany needed an escape, Kaufmann quietly opened the door—and held it open.
Over 200 people walked through that door, their lives saved by the signature of one man who refused to look away.
No headlines. No fanfare. Just handwritten affidavits, personal risk, and the kind of moral clarity most people only dream of.
He never spoke of it. Not once.
This story—buried for decades—was nearly lost. A Life Well Lived brings it to light.
