reacts a heart of a child.

Warsaw, September 1939

[the beginning of the Second World War]

Help be carry him, sir.

Excuse me... Are you Janusz Korczak?

I saw you in the cinema...

- Give me that bag, please.

- I'm so happy, I read all your books.

I wanted to write to you a long time ago

that what you write is wonderful! I...

Young man, I don't mean to offend you,

but you had to give me that bag.

I haven't even dreamt... Sir...

I... wrote a poem about what we live through.

- Where is my rifle?

- Get his rifle, sir.

Sir, but...

Why England and France

aren't doing anything?

It's just a tactical tactical manoeuvre, isn't it?

They won't leave us alone, will they?

Sir, I wrote a poem...

About what we are living through here.

Bring it to me to the

Orphanage on Krochmalna street.

There's no need...

It isn't the end, it's just the beginning.

Doctor, please hide somewhere,

it's better to be unobtrusive.

- What are you afraid of?

- Take off the uniform please, it's very dangerous.

- There's no need.

- Please.

You've never supported the army

or acknowledged these primitive symbols.

- But the situation is different.

- It is, indeed.

Have you seen anyone in the town

wearing an officer's uniform?

What did I teach you?

Since no-one today wears an uniform I can't take it off!

Everyone betrayed us.

It's an uniform of a betrayed soldier.

According of the order about restrictions

of stay in The General Government

from 13th of September 1940,

a Jewish District is created in Warsaw,

to which Jews living in Warsaw

or those migrating to Warsaw have to move in.

Jews living outside the Jewish District

have to move in to the Jewish District

until 31st of October 1940.

Where is your armband?

I don't have an armband.

- Name?

- Piotr Zalewski.

- Jewish?

- No, but...

Take your things from the wagon.

But sir, I've worked here for 22 years.

- 22 years!

- Shut up! Is she a Pole too?

Yes.

Polish pigs! Jewish servants!

Don't let him beat my husband, please!

Officer, I beg you!

We're all together, we

won't leave the Orphanage.

Take your things from the wagon.

I beg you.

They are allowed to take

only their refugee package and bedclothes.

The head of the Judenrat [the Jewish council]

will do the allocation.

President of Polish City Council

and the head of Judenrat are responsible

for proper placement of Jews in the Jewish District

and for punctual migration of Poles from the Jewish District.

Where is the wagon with potatoes?

Heniek, Heniek!

The wagon with potatoes!

It's gone. They stole it.

- What? I'm going to tell the Gestapo.

- Doctor, don't do it! To hell with the potatoes.

Do you know how hard it was to get them?
