Synopsis

It's the height of World War Two and Nazi persecution of Jews across Europe has forced hundreds of thousands of families into hiding. Oskar Schindler, a prominent German businessman, is touched by their plight - and, at great risk to his own safety, tries to save them. As word gets out that there is someone who can help them, Jews flock to him for refuge. Based on true events, the powerful Schindler's List is a testament to one man's determined fight against the most terrifying and brutal wrongdoing.
