Triumph of the Heart
THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 18 @ 7:05 PM
In the harrowing confines of Auschwitz’s starvation cell, Catholic priest St. Maximilian Kolbe (Marcin Kwasny) volunteers to die in place of another prisoner, joining nine others condemned by the Nazis. As despair and fear grip the group, the pressures of starvation, internal ideological division, mount. But throughout, Kolbe’s appeal to their shared humanity and Polish identity forges a brotherhood that culminates in a poignant act of sacrifice that echoes beyond the cell, illuminating hope in one of history’s darkest moments. Written and Directed by Anthony D'Ambrosio. (NR)
