Janusz Korczak and the orphans of the Warsaw ghetto.
Sinekatalog’s take
Andrzej Wajda's black-and-white drama portrays Janusz Korczak, the doctor who stayed with his orphans in the Warsaw ghetto. Wojciech Pszoniak is quietly heroic in a restrained, devastating film of conscience and courage.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
