Next month, Kino Lorber will bring Korczak to Blu-ray. Director Andrzej Wajda's touching drama focuses on Polish educator Janusz Korczak (Wojciech Pszoniak, Danton) and his struggle to protect the children under his care from the horrors of the Holocaust.
From Kino's official synopsis:
"Henryk Goldszmit had become a Polish icon in the 1930s through his writings, teachings, and radio programs for children, under the name of Janusz Korczak. When the kids from his Warsaw orphanage were to be deported to the gas chambers of Treblinka, he refused to abandon them, and with them...he scrounges for food and vainly tries to protect the children from the violence and famine outside their walls."
Kino's Blu-ray presents the film in a 1.66:1 aspect ratio with a LPCM monaural audio track. The disc also contains the following supplements:
