The Krakow Ghetto

In the film, the liquidation of the Krakow Ghetto on March 13, 1943, was depicted as one of the most brutal moments of the Holocaust and of WWII. In the film, the Nazis marched up and down the streets of the ghetto, screaming at all the Jews to exit their houses. The German officers broke into people’s homes and forcefully dragged them out into the streets, not allowing them to bring personal belongings. They tore apart their homes. The Nazis shot anyone on spot who tried to oppose them, including small children and the elderly. Later that night, the Nazis returned and killed anyone they found in hiding.
