1939 In September, after the German army occupied Warsaw, the capital of Poland, all Jews in Poland were sent to designated cities. In Krakow, Poland, tens of thousands of Jews from all over the world gather here every day to be registered, classified and expelled by the Nazis. Oscar Schindler, a German entrepreneur with close ties to senior German officers and politicians, came here to take over an enamel factory, found Jewish manager isaac stern, and persuaded him to raise funds from local Jewish businessmen, so that the factory could produce cookware badly needed by the army, and made a fortune in the war. With Schindler running around and dredging in many ways, the signboard of "German Tableware Factory" was finally put up. When Stern recruited workers, he took the opportunity to recruit many Jewish elderly people who were about to be sent to the "extinction camp" into the factory. At this time, the war between Germany and the Soviet Union broke out in an all-round way, and enamel materials were urgently needed in front, and orders flew like snowflakes; Let Schindler's factory be very prosperous from the beginning.

/kloc-in the winter of 0/942, the newly appointed SS commander, Amon Gert, came to Krakow and forced more than 30,000 workers to build the Prasov labor camp. 1March 943 13, the ss, under the command of Gert, carried out a terrible massacre in the Jewish settlement, and drove some Jews who survived the robbery into the Prasov labor camp; Those with poor physical strength were caught up in the sultry tank train and transported to the gas chambers and crematoria of Auschwitz concentration camp. Schindler witnessed this tragic scene and was shocked by Nazi brutality. At the same time, facing the empty factory, he felt worried. He persuaded Gert to use his factory as an affiliated labor camp and spent a lot of money to buy gifts for Gert and his boss to get through the joints and "buy" the lives of Jews from them. But he still couldn't stop Gert from killing people at will for no reason.

1April 944, Gert received an order to concentrate all Jews in Auschwitz concentration camp. Schindler was once again shocked by the brutal crimes of fascism and brewed a huge rescue plan. He and the chief accountant Stern made a list of "essential" workers, and made a deal with Gert with a whole box of cash to transfer 1 100 Jewish workers to a new factory on the Czechoslovak border. And regardless of the risk of losing money, it was announced that it would not produce any useful products for Germans for seven months. At the same time, he spent millions of marks to buy shells produced by others and bribed key departments and workers who supported him.

Soon, the news of Germany's unconditional surrender finally came on the radio. At this time Schindler was penniless and went bankrupt. In the workshop, he told everyone that he was Nazi party member, an arms manufacturer and a war criminal. "You will be free, and I must run away." . All the Jews gathered to see him off. Schindler, with trembling hands, took a letter of proof signed by all the workers from an old Jewish man and a ring engraved with the words "Save one life, and save the world" in Hebrew. He choked up and said, "I could have taken more people out of Krakow, but I spent too much money, and I couldn't do it ..."1974, and the shopping mall was frustrated and lonely. His coffin was buried in Jerusalem, the holy land of Judaism, under the escort of the Jews he saved that year.

After the film was released, international film critics praised the film as "a film full of humanitarianism", which was a higher reward for him.
