Agnieszka Holland directs this acclaimed drama based on the true
story of a sewage worker who saved the lives of 14 Jews in the
Polish city of Lvov during the Second World War. Leopold 'Poldek'
Socha (Robert Wieckiewicz), a resolutely anti-Semitic sewer
inspector who supplements his meagre government income by trading
in stolen goods, discovers a group of Jews hiding from the
occupying Nazis in the waste tunnels underneath the city. The group
begs him to bring them food and Socha agrees - not from any moral
compulsion but because he believes he can charge them an
extortionate amount of money for what he brings. However, as time
passes and Leopold spends more time with a group of people who come
to rely on him for survival, the inspector's misanthropic demeanour
appears to undergo a change. Finally, the money begins to run out
and Leopold is forced to face up to the kind of moral choice he
would have scoffed at in the past.
