Irena Sendler: In the Name of Their Mothers (2011)

At 95, Irena Sendler reveals how she and a group of young Polish women risked their lives to save thousands of Jewish children from the Warsaw ghetto. Sendler was captured by the Gestapo, tortured and sentenced to death in 1943 but she refused to divulge anything about her underground operation. She escaped miraculously on the day she was to be executed. The 2,500 Jewish children she and her liaisons had hidden all survived the war, and many were later re-united with their Jewish families. But for decades in Communist Poland, neither the children nor their wartime caretakers could speak about their experiences. This film features the last long interviews Sendler gave before she died in 2008, along with several of her liaisons in the Polish Resistance and the now-grown children they saved.

Thank you Poland for sharing your amazing women with the world

Very inspiriting story of brave hearts of Polish catholic women. Between 1939 and 1945, Irena Sendler, a young Polish Catholic social worker, led a daring conspiracy of young catholic women who saved thousands of Jewish children from certain death. Yet little was known about them until recently. Participants in the Polish Resistance, they were viewed as a threat to the Communists who took over Poland in 1945 and their stories and many others were suppressed for decades. Now American filmmaker Mary Skinner, the daughter of a Warsaw war orphan, brings their remarkable saga to life in Irena Sendler In the Name of Their Mothers. The extraordinary film features 95-year-old Irena Sendler in the last interviews she gave before she died in 1998, together with her co-workers and the Jewish children they saved.
