LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Hulu's 'We Were the Lucky Ones,' which is set in the midst of the Holocaust, tells the tragic story of the Kurc family, who fights to survive the atrocities of war. 

Based on Georgia Hunter's novel of the same name, the show stars Joey King, Logan Lerman, Henry Lloyd-Hughes, Amit Rahav, Hadas Yaron, and Lior Ashkenazi.

The fourth episode of the show, which debuted on April 4, takes viewers even further into the Kurc family's suffering as they make every effort to endure the horrific events of World War II.

A heartbreaking portrayal of horrors against Jews was woven throughout the fourth episode of the show, which was chock full of poignant moments and intense emotions.

The episode depicted Mila Kurc's (Hadas Yaron) struggle to save her toddler daughter Felicia (Belle Swarc), which is jeopardized, and it remains uncertain whether she will survive the German assault or not.

Furthermore, Addy Kurc (Logan Lerman) decides to flee to Casablanca with his lady love, Elisabeth Lowbeer (Lihi Kornowski).

As German forces invade the city and anti-Semitic sentiment grows, the other set of siblings, Halina Kurc (Joey King) and Jakob Kurc (Amit Rahav), at Lvov, also face the possibility of being executed.

The upcoming episode will show the terrible hardships the Kurc family will face as each sibling fights for survival. It's quite possible that Mila will make it through the catastrophe and set off on an adventurous quest to protect Felicia.

On the other hand, Addy's strategy may be compromised because of Elisabeth's companionship, which would undoubtedly draw attention and endanger their safety. 

Jakob and Halina will also devise plans to come out of hiding and it is possible that the sibling duo will help fellow Jews by searching for those who are missing. 

The last episode didn't show anything about Genek Kurc (Henry Lloyd-Hughes ), who is struggling in the Siberian camp with his wife, Herta Seifert (Moran Rosenblatt). It's highly likely that Gerek's faith will start to crumble and he will struggle to survive the Siberian winter. 

When will 'We Were the Lucky Ones' Episode 5 air?
