Film producer Gene Gutowski (Repulsion, The Pianist) was fourteen when the Nazis invaded his hometown of Lwow, Poland. With a combination of chutzpah, street smarts and an unflinching will to live, he spent the war flirting with danger as a teenage Jew hiding in plain site. As recounted with humor and pathos to his son, filmmaker Bardach, his remarkable survival tale represents a thumb of the nose at darkness and totalitarianism.
