Plot – In late 1939, the German troops bombarded Warsaw, the capital of Poland, reducing its famous zoo to a pile of rubble. The director and his wife can only watch while their country gets invaded and the Jewish ghetto gets built. When the deportations begin in 1942, the couple starts hiding entire Jewish families in the zoo, disguised as a farm. Zabinskis' house and the cages become a place where people can hide from the ferocity of the Nazis. In this place, almost 300 Jews were saved.
