It is the story of a great WW II hero, one of the bravest Poles in history – Captain Witold Pilecki, who was according to many historians among the most important conspirators of WWII on all fronts. His heroic and sometimes even hopeless fight against the two ruthless totalitarianisms of the 20th century – German and Soviet – is dramatically visible in his biography. The film tells the story of a man whom the communist propaganda tried to erase from the consciousness of Poles and history for nearly 45 years. The viewers can follow the fate of a brave conspirator, a loving husband and father, and a man who voluntarily agrees to be arrested and transported to Auschwitz. Soon after the end of WWII, he finished writing and editing the so-called "The Pilecki’s Report", which is an extraordinary testimony to the German crimes in Auschwitz and the activities of the resistance movement in the camp.
