User Reviews

you feel as if you were there, not only through images, but through your thoughts, feelings, emotions

do you know this feeling when a film is touching you inside, changes something in you, makes you wanna scream ? i guess this one is one of them

i will not tell u much about this film, i never liked to analyze what author wanted to say, what is the message, i wont tell you about the special effect (i guess the best one ever made in any polish production), settings with great detail, great city fight sequences, surprisingly original camera work, no, no I leave all that for experts who know what they say

let me better tell you something that this film changed in me

i read a lot about Warsaw Uprisings (both the Jewish one in Ghetto and Uprising 44 - please Don't MIX THOSE TWO), I watched documentaries, movies, i met some fighters when i was in primary school for some educational talks,

i think i knew ... but i had no idea until i watched this

is this a historic movie ? No really is this a war movie ? I wouldn't say so Love story ? That would be too simple

what is it then you ask ? I guess i will need more time and thoughts to figure it out, what i can tell u now is that it showed me people young people like me, who were faced with unthinkable times, unthinkable evil, and how it transformed them

it is one of those time when a history book fact, some figure, some picture, drags you into it, and leaves your mind damaged, just like it left those people, their city, their dreams

scary
