Love Story

International Premiere

A wholly innovative and original cinematic experience, with superb animation, Love Story delivers its message about love and death during WWII in mesmerizing fashion. This powerful and riveting film unfolds through the remembrances of Bogdan Jastrzębski, honored for being a Righteous Among the Nations, as he recalls the damning tragedy of the war and also his romance with a Jewish girl who became his one true love. From first dates to shy kisses, their love for each other thrived despite the horror that unfolded in the Częstochowa ghetto. Under the Nazis’ watchful eyes, Bogdan risked his life to save his love by helping her miraculously escape from the ghetto. Love Story is a sensitive, remarkable film, one that resonates long after the final fade out.
