National Geographic's tribute: Unique films on the Warsaw Uprising

Narrated by Wiktor Zborowski, Aleksandra Kwaśniewska, and Jan Emil Młynarski, the films cover various aspects of the Uprising: its outbreak, the role of women, and the involvement of foreigners.

Thanks to advanced video collage techniques, complemented by a carefully selected soundtrack and compelling narration, we have created unique films that pay tribute to the courage and dedication of the Warsaw Uprising participants, said Marta Szafrańska, Director of Communications and CSR at The Walt Disney Company CEE for National Geographic.
