For those interested in the Polish Home Army there is a new film in the works. Whilst growing up I read the book and it had a very big impact on my life especially because it was a true story. For those that never read the book, it is the story of 3 best friends, who are boy scouts, they became part of the Home Army and after one is captured by the Gestapo the 2 other friends want to free him by attacking the transport he is in, after a few days they recieve permission from the High Command and 29 men take part in the daring operation, daylight, middle of occupied Warsaw, only 2 armed with Stens the rest with pistols. The story was filmed once already in the film 'Akcja pod Arsenalem'.
Here is a trailer for the new film:
