In Darkness

Oscar-nominated Polish WWII drama based on the true story of a sewer worker's increasing dedication to save 14 Jews in the Nazi-occupied city of Lvov. 

Leopold Socha, a sewer worker and petty thief in Lvov, a Nazi occupied city in Poland, encounters a group of Jews trying to escape the ghetto. He hides them for money in the labyrinth of the town’s sewers, beneath the bustling city above. What starts out as a straightforward and cynical business arrangement turns into an unexpected alliance between Socha and the Jews, as the enterprise seeps deeper into Socha’s conscience.
