Limited Drama Series 6’60
“What can I say to you, my beloved colleagues and companions in misery? … Through this work, you have given the Nazi henchmen the answer NON OMNIS MORIAR - I shall not wholly die.”
- Dr. Israel Milejkowski (From his 1943 foreword to the study)
Trapped in the Warsaw Ghetto, a group of quietly heroic Jewish doctors conceive a unique form of resistance: a secret medical study, documenting the effects of the Nazi policy of forced starvation – on their patients, their families and even themselves. What begins as a quest for lifesaving knowledge becomes a struggle for survival against the odds.
Based on years of archival research, THE HUNGER is the unbelievable, untold true story of the men and women who pulled off the Warsaw Ghetto Hunger Trial.
