A Generation (1955)
Stach is a wayward teen living in squalor on the outskirts of Nazi-occupied Warsaw.

Soon he is engaged in dangerous efforts to fight oppression and indignity, maturing as he assumes responsibility for others’ lives. A coming-of-age story of survival and shattering loss, A Generation delivers a brutal portrait of the human cost of war.
