I would watch the ever loving hell out of an HBO series about this woman. They would make fucking millions too, and people would learn about a real hero. Triple W
Yeah. Make a fucking series about them. There are more than enough people that have a powerful story that is real, not fake, and who defied danger much more than any Superhero did.
Besides: They are incredibly powerful role models. Remember how many young woman admired Daenerys when GoT was popular?
Fritz and Hedwig Aub come to my mind - they supported hidden jews all over Berlin (Fritz was a doctor), often sacrificing their own food rations for them and were almost caught multiple times.
Cläre Barwitzky saved 30 jewish kids in France.
Lepa Radić was executed at age 17 by German troops after fighting as a partisan, refusing to give up her comrades name under torture.Before that she escaped a KZ like prison at age 15.
We need to make real world examples like Margot and all the others.
There are countless similar people. The Danish resistance who saved most Danish jews. The Italian partisans who fought both their own Fascism and the Germans. The French resistance.
The Polish resistance had people who intentionally let themselves imprison in KZ, including Auschwitz, and escaped from there.
These stories need to be told.
Which brings me back to Margot - she came back to Germany because she could remember that there were people that helped her, despite the consequences. That not all people were evil and that there is always something one can do to resist.
Which is a message she found more important now than ever before.
