"Malowany chlopiec" - The first major mystification of the Holocaust was the novel "The Painted Bird" by Polish Emigrant Jerzy Kosinski, who in his book describes himself as an abandoned child who became mute, ended up in an orphanage and only later discovers his Jewish origin. "The Painted Bird" has since its publication in 1965 been the subject of discussion on its authenticity.

Weaves together the personal recollections of four Polish survivors of the Holocaust with original footage from the present day. The film focuses specifically on the relations between Jews and Poles in Nazi occupied Poland.
