Mourir pour Varsovie

The Warsaw uprising (1 Aug - 2 Oct. 1944) is probably one of the most terrible feats of arms of WWII, not only by the number of victims - nearly 180 000 - or the ruins and the destruction it caused, but because rarely in history has such courage and suffering been met with such devastating results. This is probably one of the least known events of WWII, often confused with the uprising of the Warsaw Ghetto that occurred several months earlier. Why has it been all but forgotten by History? The people of Warsaw filmed their 2-months' battle so that there would be a trace of their struggle. (texte officiel du distributeur)
