Plot. In September 1939, Wladyslaw Szpilman, a Polish-Jewish pianist, plays on radio in Warsaw when the station is bombed during Germany's invasion of Poland at the outbreak of World War II. Hoping for a quick victory, Szpilman rejoices with family at home when learning that Britain and France have declared war on Germany. But Germany defeats Poland quickly and its troops enter Warsaw, where life for Jews deteriorates as the authorities prevent them working or owning businesses...

By November 1940, Szpilman and his family have been forced from their home into the overcrowded Warsaw Ghetto where conditions only get worse. People starve, the guards are brutal and corpses are left in the streets. On one occasion, the Szpilmans witness the SS kill an entire family during a lapanka (raid) in an apartment across the street.
