Description
Witold Pilecki made one of the most extraordinary decisions of the Second World War: he deliberately allowed himself to be captured so he could enter Auschwitz. As a Polish resistance officer, his mission was to build an underground network, gather intelligence, and send reports beyond the camp’s barbed wire.
This documentary follows Pilecki’s journey through occupied Poland, Auschwitz, escape, the Warsaw Uprising, and his postwar persecution under Poland’s communist regime. His story is a powerful reminder of what it means to bear witness when telling the truth may cost everything.
