Bardejov Trailer Explained

The trailer starts with a peaceful scene where people are going about their daily lives in the town.

People are at the synagogue, and mothers are putting their babies to bed. But then, everything changes suddenly.

The Hlinka Guards, who are young members of a group allied with the Nazis, arrive in the town center and tell all the Jewish people to register for work.

Rabbi Rafuel Lowy, who also makes wine, realizes that they need to take action to protect the Jewish people in their town.

When it’s announced that the Jewish girls will be sent to work in a shoe factory in the East, Rabbi Lowy knows something isn’t right.

He gathers other leaders from the town to figure out a plan. They discover that instead of going to a factory, the girls are being sent to Auschwitz, a place where many people are killed.

So, the people of Bardejov come together to save as many of their fellow townspeople as they can.

They work together as a community to protect each other from the danger that’s coming. Watch the trailer below:
