Escaping Hell is the compelling and true story of a heroic young
Polish officer who survived the terror of five years in the prisons
of Auschwitz and Buchenwald - where violence was meaningless
because human life had lost all value. During World War II, Kon
Piekarski was a member of the Polish Underground Army, a
clandestine resistance movement which operated even inside
Auschwitz - organizing spectacular esacpes, operating a secret
radio network and matching wits with the Gestapo. After Auschwitz,
Piekarski became a prisoner of war at Buchenwald and spent time
working in a factory where Russian prisoners of war were used for
labour. In the face of constant danger, he and his comrades took
every possible opportunity to sabotage the German war industry. He
was finally transferred to a small camp near the French border, and
escaped three months before the end of the war.
