Schindler's List is a biographical film of 1993, which narrates the story of Oskar Schindler. This film is directed by Steven Spielberg focusing on Sudeten-German Catholic businessman. Oskar Schindler saved the lives of more than one thousand Polish Jews during World War II
Schindlers List starts on with the backdrop of late 1939 showing Polish Jews relocating just after the beginning of World War II. Oskar Schindler who is an unproductive businessman comes from Czechoslovakia with the hope of employing plentiful slave labor force of Jews. This is because he wanted to make goods for the German military.
Schindlers List shows that Schindler was an opportunist and he was also a member of the Nazi Party. He bribed the army and SS officials and obtained a factory for the manufacture of army mess kits. This was sponsored by the military.
Schindlers List shows that Schindler was an inefficient man to run the business and he did not even know how to run the factory. So he took the help of Itzhak Stern a worker in the local Jewish Council who had communication with underground Jewish business community in the Ghetto. With monetary help from them Schindler opened the factory and pleased the Nazis.
This let him enjoy his brand new wealth and status as Herr Director, in Schindlers List while Stern managed all administration. Stern even advised Schindler to employ Jews as the substitute of Poles for the reason that they cost less. Stern faked documents to make sure that the employment of the Jews and Schindler remains cold without taking any action even though he knew what was happening to the Jews in general.
Amon Göth as shown in Schindlers List came to Krakow to make a new construction of a labor camp near. So the SS rapidly clears the Krakow ghetto massacring the people without any reason. Schindler observed the slaughter from the hills and was intensely concerned. Yet he remained careful to befriend Göth and, continued to enjoy the SS's support and protection.
Schindlers List shows that Schindler tried to make Göth understand so that he keeps his workers because if he does that then Schindler can move them to a factory in his old home of Zwittau-Brinnlitz. Zwittau-Brinnlitz was in Moravia, away from this destroyed place and now fully under the territory of Poland. Göth wanted a definite amount for each worker and Schindler along with Stern made a list of workers to be dispatched.
