The true story of pianist Władysław Szpilman's experiences in Warsaw during the Nazi occupation. When the Jews of the city find themselves forced into a ghetto, Szpilman finds work playing in a café; and when his family is deported in 1942, he stays behind, works for a while as a laborer, and eventually goes into hiding in the ruins of the war-torn city.

Warsaw transforms into a skeletal, gray labyrinth of ruins and shadows as the Nazi occupation tightens its grip. Amidst the encroaching silence of a destroyed city, a lone musician fights to preserve his humanity through nothing but memory and melody.
