Auschwitz, 1941. One of the prisoners, Jan, escapes from the German concentration
camp while working at a gravel pit. Thanks to the help of good-hearted people
he finds shelter. There Jan hears tragic news about ten random inmates sentenced
to death starvation by Nazis in a bunker as a punishment for his escape. One
among the convicts is Fr. Maximillian Kolbe, a Franciscan priest who volunteered
to die in place of one of the inmates. Now Jan is not just fleeing the Nazis,
but also his guilt for his involvement in Kolbe’s death. He goes to visit
Niepokalanów, a very large Franciscan monastery where Fr. Kolbe had been
the founder and superior. Through contact with people who knew the priest, Jan
wants to learn what were the motives behind his decision to die for another
prisoner, a complete stranger. Though free from Auschwitz, Jan will continue
to be confronted by the life of Maximilian Kolbe wherever he goes. In addition
to Jan – torn between wanting to forget and a fascination with Kolbe –
another key character emerges, Brother Anselm. He is a devout young Franciscan
priest who quietly but strongly witnesses to Kolbe’s heroic faith and
love, and then rejoices at the Beatification of Kolbe by Pope Paul VI. Later
Kolbe will be canonized by his fellow countryman, Pope John Paul II, who proclaimed
Kolbe as the “patron saint of the difficult 20th century”.
Includes a 16 page Collector’s Booklet and Study Guide with color photos,
and text by Catholic film critic Steve Greydanus.
