“Korczak” — Review Of Films By Andrzej Wajda

A story about Janusz Korczak, a Polish doctor and educator of Jewish origin, focusing on the last years of his life (1936—1942), in which the title role was played by Wojciech Pszoniak.

In 1936, Doctor Korczak, who conducts popular radio talks, is called to the boss and learns that his broadcast has been taken off the air. Disappointed by this manifestation of anti-Semitism, he devotes himself entirely to educational work. He runs an orphanage for Jewish children, teaches at the Medical Academy. War breaks out. During the defense of Warsaw, Dr. Korczak served as a military doctor. After the surrender, he returns to his orphanage, which is soon transferred to the ghetto.
