Warsaw Ghetto. May, 1943. Paul Goldfinger still image from Israel.
5/16/43. Armed resistance collapses at the Warsaw Ghetto. Nazis kill or remove over 56,000 Jews. Nazi forces burn the ghetto. This freedom fighter crawls out of a basement to be greeted by massive numbers of Nazi attackers. All resistance fighters are murdered. A small number manage to escape and bear witness.
Jews hide inside while Nazis set the Ghetto ablaze with artillery and flame throwers. Hidden photographers. During the 26 day resistance, writers chronicled the events and buried their observations. These items were dug up after the war to prove what occurred. PG. Blogfinger.net
