Описание к видео The man who volunteered to be imprisoned in Auschwitz - BBC REEL

In 1940, a Polish underground operative named Witold Pilecki volunteered to be imprisoned at Auschwitz.

His job was to gather intelligence about activities at the camp and establish a daring resistance network inside. Pilecki remained imprisoned for over two and a half years, and witnessed Auschwitz transform into the Nazi's most notorious death camp. He tried to warn the world of the horrors he was witnessing, but the world didn't listen.
