Marketing Plan

Captain Wilm Hosenfeld was initially an ardent admirer of Adolf Hitler. But after witnessing Nazi brutality while stationed in Poland during World War II, his moral conscience moved him to become a rescuer. Throughout the war, he never considered an individual’s religion or ethnicity when called upon for help. His heroism was not known outside of Poland until Władysław Szpilman’s bestselling memoir, The Pianist— later made into a 2002 Academy Award-winning movie of the same name—revealed an amazing man whose compassion caused him to save more than 60 people.
