英文介绍:
The relocation of Polish Jews from surrounding areas to Krakow in late 1939, shortly after the beginning of World War II. Oskar Schindler , a successful businessman, arrives from Czechoslovakia in hopes of using the abundant cheap labour force of Jews to manufacture goods for the German military. Schindler, an opportunistic member of the Nazi party, lavishes bribes upon the army and SS officials in charge of procurement. Sponsored by the military, Schindler acquires a factory for the production of army mess kits. Not knowing much about how to properly run such an enterprise, he gains a contact in Itzhak Stern , a functionary in the local Judenrat who has contacts with the now underground Jewish business community in the Ghetto. They loan him the money for the factory in return for a small share of products produced . Opening the factory, Schindler pleases the Nazis and enjoys his new-found wealth and status as Herr Direktor, while Stern handles all administration. Stern suggests Schindler hire Jews instead of Poles because they cost less . Workers in Schindlers factory are allowed outside the ghetto though, and Stern falsifies documents to ensure that as many people as possible are deemed essential by the Nazi bureaucracy, which saves them from being transported to concentration camps, or even being killed.
Amon G th arrives in Krakow to initiate construction of a labor camp nearby, Paszw. The SS soon clears the Krakow ghetto, sending in hundreds of troops to empty the cramped rooms and shoot anyone who protests, is uncooperative, elderly or infirmed, or for no reason at all. Schindler watches the massacre from the hills overlooking the area, and is profoundly affected. He nevertheless is careful to befriend G th and, through Sterns attention to bribery, he continues to enjoy the SSs support and protection. The camp is built outside the city at Paszw. During this time, Schindler bribes G th into allowing him to build a sub-camp for his workers, with the motive of keeping them safe from the depredations of the guards. Eventually, an order arrives from Berlin commanding G th to exhume and destroy all bodies of those killed in the Krakow Ghetto, dismantle Paszw, and to ship the remaining Jews to Auschwitz. Schindler prevails upon G th to let him keep his workers, so that he can move them to a factory in his old home of Zwittau-Brinnlitz, in Moravia, away from the final solution, now fully underway in occupied Poland. G th acquiesces, charging a certain amount for each worker. Schindler and Stern assemble a list of workers that should keep them off the trains to Auschwitz.
