At Sandwich Freedom Hall Gaming Parlor, we bring you this powerful tale set during the tumultuous times of World War II.

Overview

'The Zookeeper's Wife' is a historical drama directed by Niki Caro, based on the bestselling book by Diane Ackerman. This extraordinary story unfolds in Warsaw, Poland, where a zookeeper named Jan and his wife Antonina Zabinski display exceptional courage and humanity during the Nazi occupation.

Plot Synopsis

The film introduces us to the idyllic Warsaw Zoo, a place filled with beauty, love, and the sounds of animals. Jan and Antonina Zabinski run the zoo with immense dedication, providing a safe haven for endangered species and sharing their knowledge and passion for wildlife with the public.

However, their peaceful world is shattered when the German army invades Poland in 1939, marking the beginning of World War II. The zoo is heavily damaged during the bombings, leaving many animals dead or injured.

The Role of the Zabinski Family

As the story continues, the Zabinski family faces an unimaginable decision – whether to stay passive or actively resist the Nazi regime. They choose the latter, risking their lives to save both human and animal lives. The zoo that once showcased beautiful creatures becomes a refuge for Jews escaping the horrors of the Warsaw Ghetto.

Jan and Antonina, together with their young son Ryszard, devise an audacious plan to hide persecuted Jews in the underground tunnels and animal enclosures of the zoo. The couple's unwavering courage and resourcefulness help save hundreds of lives, providing a glimmer of hope in the darkest period of human history.
