| dc.description.abstract | Roman Polanski’s The Pianist is a genuine depiction of survival instinct inherent in human being, which is marvelously outplayed by the protagonist, Szpilman and other characters at the time of crisis and killings. The movie crystallizes in what extent a human being has love for his life even in the mouth of death. The plot of the movie and the camera revolves around the pianist called Szpilman and his family who spent their life among the tortures, and hardship in the Warsaw Ghetto. Nevertheless, as the German grip tightens upon Poland, Szpilman and his family are selected for their unwanted exile to a Nazi concentration camp. Refusing to face certain death, Szpilman goes into hiding in a comfortable apartment provided by a friend. However, when his benefactor goes missing, Szpilman is left to fend for himself and he spends the next several years dashing from one abandoned home to another, desperate to avoid capture by German occupation troops. Protagonist fulfills his existential quest despite of his surrounding messed with corpses, hilling, bullets and bombardments | en_US |
