synopsis
Told in documentary fashion, the film follows a group of Polish resistance fighters during World War II. Their patriotism and courage sustains them during the tragic days of the Warsaw uprising. Oddly, director Jacob Morgenstern has chosen to film his story in color. If ever there was a subject that cried out for black and white, it was W Hour.
