KORCZAK
This heartbreaking film about Janusz Korczak, a Polish-Jewish educator and pediatrician during the Second World War, saw Wajda collaborate on the screenplay with filmmaker Agnieszka Holland. The topic of Jewishness within Polish history and society is a feature of a number of Wajda’s films; KORCZAK is arguably his most resonant, and vital, account of the Holocaust, exploring themes of self-sacrifice, honor and the strength of the human spirit, even in the face of evil.
