Razing Warsaw - Testimonies from the Warsaw Uprising

An unflinching account of the 1944 Warsaw Rising, told through the voices of those who lived and fought it. As the Polish Home Army launches its desperate revolt against German occupation, hope surges through the city. Civilians and fighters alike believe liberation is within reach. But within days, that hope is tested as overwhelming enemy firepower begins to crush the resistance. From street battles and sewer escapes to makeshift hospitals overwhelmed by casualties, these firsthand testimonies reveal the brutal reality of urban warfare. Rumours of Allied help fade. Supplies run out. The cost becomes unbearable. In the end comes surrender, captivity, and the systematic destruction of Warsaw itself. Powerful, immediate and deeply human, this is the Warsaw Rising as it was experienced: a story of courage, sacrifice, and a city that refused to yield, even in defeat.
