Descrizione
Biography of Janusz Korczak, Polish-Jewish doctor, writer and educator, who was forced to gather together the 200 orphans under his care in the Warsaw Ghetto. Refusing all offers for his own safety, he led them, with quiet dignity, to the train which would take them to Treblinka, where he perished with them.
