Whoever saves one life saves the entire world.

Kraków, under German occupation during World War II. Polish Jews are forced to live in a crowded ghetto. Oskar Schindler, an ethnic German businessman and member of the Nazi Party, arrives in the city with one clear goal: to get rich. To achieve it, he bribes officers of the Wehrmacht and the SS, and with that money he acquires a factory that produces enamelware. Steven Spielberg directs the film and Liam Neeson plays Schindler, in a city where every favor has a price. The right connections open doors, and the protagonist begins to move between them with ease.

Trivia about Schindler's List

The production had a modest budget of 22 million dollars, because Holocaust films were typically not very profitable.

Spielberg took no salary for directing it, believing it would be unethical to accept one and that the film would be a commercial failure.

Spielberg refused to shoot in color negative, as Tom Pollock, president of Universal Pictures, had requested, because it would have made the events look more beautiful.

The Płaszów camp was recreated in a nearby abandoned quarry, because numerous modern buildings could be seen from the original site.

Spielberg even considered shooting the film entirely in German and Polish, with subtitles, although he ultimately did not.

Filming began on March 1, 1993 in Kraków and lasted 72 days; in addition, two days were shot outside the Auschwitz-Birkenau camp, in Oświęcim.

The recreation of the Płaszów camp included 34 barracks, seven watchtowers and a replica of Amon Göth's villa, built according to the original blueprints.

After its home video release, the film returned to 55 American theaters on September 23, 1994, and had grossed 92,852,228 dollars in the United States and 200,774,374 overseas by June of that year.
