Korczak

Poland 1990


Details IMDB
Seen 29 May 2014

Ratings from other sources
IMDB 7.5/10


Account of the last days of life of the legendary Polish pedagogue Janusz Korczak and his heroic dedication to protecting Jewish orphans during the war







My ratings 7.0/10

My impressions:

The atrocities of war affects everyone. In this case even children from the orphanage. The good doctor tries his best to save the children but what exactly can he do considering the situation. The plan to deport them had been set and any effort to change that decision is futile.

Fated being born of a certain group
That choice was not in our hands
Children with all their dreams and hopes
Are the same

Unfortunately
Tomorrow might not wait for them
