Escape From Warsaw (Subtitled) is a drama movie based on a true story, directed by Ian Morris in 2013. The movie is set in Poland during World War II and revolves around a brave group of children who escaped from their war-torn country to seek refuge in Switzerland. The movie is adapted from the novel The Silver Sword by Ian Seraillier, which is based on a true story of a family in Warsaw who were separated during WWII. The story follows the lives of three siblings - Ruth (Elisabeth Duda), Edek (Kamil Tkacz), and Bronia (Natalia Rybicka) - who were forced to flee their home and country after their father was taken prisoner by the German army.

Separated from their mother and forced to fend for themselves, the children embark on a dangerous journey across Poland, risking their lives to reunite with their parents. Along the way, they meet other orphaned children and together they form a new family, relying on each other for survival and support.

With the help of an underground resistance movement, the children make their way towards Switzerland, where they hope to finally find safety and a new beginning. However, the path to freedom is not easy, and the children must navigate through enemy territory, facing countless obstacles and challenges along the way.

The movie is a tale of courage, resilience and the strength of the human spirit. It depicts the horrors of war, the devastating impact it has on families and communities, but also the hope and resilience of those who refuse to give up in the face of adversity.

The acting in Escape From Warsaw is exceptional, with Andrzej Tkacz and Kamil Tkacz delivering powerful performances as Jan and Edek, respectively. Elisabeth Duda also delivers a moving performance as Ruth, the oldest sibling who must take on the role of mother and protector to her younger siblings.

The cinematography and score are equally impressive, capturing the stark beauty and brutality of war-torn Poland. The movie keeps the audience engaged and on edge, as the children's journey maintains a fast pace and suspenseful atmosphere throughout.

Overall, Escape From Warsaw (Subtitled) is a touching and inspiring movie that honours the resilience, courage and strength of those who suffered through the horrors of WWII. It is a story of hope, love and survival that will leave a lasting impact on those who watch it.
