The Escape from Auschwitz

In 1939, Kazimierz Piechowski’s bid to flee the SS ends in capture at the Hungarian border, leading to his imprisonment in Auschwitz. There, he is tasked with moving bodies from the gas chambers to the crematorium. Upon learning that a friend is marked for execution, he becomes determined to save him at any cost. This sets the stage for one of World War II’s most extraordinary true tales, as four men put their lives on the line in a daring attempt to break free from Auschwitz.
