Product Description

This is the story of 29-year-old Irena Sendler who saw the suffering of Warsaw's Jews and reached out to her most trusted colleagues for help and outwitted the Nazis during World War II. Together they rescued over 2500 Jewish children. This film expertly captures the will and character of the women of the resistance against the backdrop of occupied Poland.

This is an excellent presentation of one of the bravest people ever. Irena, along with others, rescued many children from the Warsaw ghetto and the Nazis. A true story of incredible courage.

Irena did something good however, I wanted to know how the hidden children are doing and did they return back to their original religion and it never stated how well the nuns treated them. Having been taught by nuns in grade school, they were scary and mean.

5.0 out of 5 stars Angels and Demons
Reviewed in the United States on September 10, 2012

Eveywhere in this world there are angels and demons. In this true story, the demons wore swastikas and the angels were Irena Sendler and those who helped her save the lives of little children. Does it matter they were Jewish children? They were little children that the demon-murderers wanted to kill. We had heard the stories of the Poles that had tried to help the Nazis exterminate the Jews and were happy to help. This story is evidence that there were decent Poles in occupied Poland, that there were people willing to take the chance of being captured and killed themselves in order to do what was right and holy. Her story resonates in the hearts of all the people who know of the horrors of that period and, maybe, her story will help us be as brave if we are ever confronted by similar circumstances. The eye-witness accounts were at once powerful and compelling, and the story of this woman would make wonderful drama if it all weren't true.

This is a history of what happens when a lunatic gets in charge because a whole heap of lunatics can't make up their minds as to who they are. Some others had to go overboard. I just hope that those who gained know the source of it, love your neighbour, and that it doesn't come of Man because Man is too busy getting the trains to run on time. The essence of human bestiality is well recorded for posterity. Thankyou, Irena, and I hope I am one whom you rescue rather than the one from whom you rescue others. God love you and wipe the map of sub-ape rationalism, on whatever side of the border of mankind.

I was hoping for more of an actual movie whereas this was a documentary. It still covered good info and I'm glad this story is getting out. I wish the event hadn't taken place but it did and someone covered the info, which is good.

5.0 out of 5 stars Sendler Documentary Film
Reviewed in the United States on April 23, 2013

A must-see film for those who want to know the true story of Irena Sendler, a true Polish hero. This well-made documentary has been shown on PBS. Sendler's authorized biography can also be purchased on the Amazon.com website: Irena Sendler: Mother of the Children of the Holocaust [Hardcover] Muza SA (Editor). Young readers interested in Sendler will enjoy: Irena Sendler: Bringing Life to Children of the Holocaust (Crabtree Groundbreaker Biographies) [Paperback] Susan Brophy Down.

There is much misinformation, circulating on the Internet, about Sendler (e.g., the chain letter that refers to Sendler as a "sewer worker/plumbing specialist." Irena Sendler was a SOCIAL WORKER. Watch this film to get the facts!
