"Mimis work as an actress in "Return to the Hiding Place" has that old-school raw craftsmanship which transcends you as an audience to authentically experience life during the pressures of that era," says Jenn Gotzon.
Corrie ten Booms personal assistant Pam Rosewell Moore commented "I felt like I was with Corrie all over again..." after seeing Sagadins portrayal of her friend in "Return to the Hiding Place.".
