The document summarizes the plot of the 2002 film The Pianist, which tells the true story of Polish Jewish pianist Wladyslaw Szpilman. During World War 2, Szpilman is forced into the Warsaw Ghetto by the invading Germans but is later captured and saved by a kind German officer named Hosenfeld. Though Hosenfeld is later imprisoned by the Soviets, he ensures Szpilman will be cared for. Szpilman survives the war but is unable to find Hosenfeld, who likely died in Soviet captivity. The film depicts the brutality faced by Jews under German occupation but also highlights the humanity shown by some Germans like Hosenfeld.
