Another surprise from the second war. bizarre. a good lesson in history of a terrible epoch. Highly recommended for history buffs.
I have a passion for holocaust films and documentaries.I did not know the sad story of the Polish Hotel.Stories of the Holocaust are like fingerprints no two are identical.The film was well told and educated me. I have recently learned of others who survived in Poland with the help of passports issued by the Japanese Consul.Too survive in occupied Poland you either had to obtain forged papers,be hidden by sympathetic Poles,or escape to the Forest and fight withthe Partisans.The unfortunate reality is that 90% did not survive
Survivors of the German occupation of Poland return to the Hotel Polski where their families survived or were eventually murdered. Hotel Polski was unknown to me and through this documentary the history was examined in an accessible but invested way. It's always touching to see survivors be so strong and grateful. Great film.
Vey well done.
Another slice of a very dark and sad part of human history called Holocaust. Very honestly told story.
