The Pianist (2002)
The film tells the autobiographical account of Holocaust victim and master pianist Wladyslaw Szpilman. His prosperous family is forced out of their home into what became the walled-in Warsaw Ghetto. They are then put on a train and sent to the death camps, never to return. Szpilman, however, is pulled out of line at the last minute by a friend (who became one of the Jewish ghetto police) and given a chance to run. He does run, and with amazing good fortune and the kindness of old non-Jewish friends and strangers he escapes capture and death for the duration of the war.
