Synopsis

The path of young Stanley’s life takes an abrupt turn when Germany invades Poland and soldiers arrive in Jasło with their new rules for the town’s Jews. Forced to live crammed into a ghetto, Stanley is left bewildered at what his life has become. His path to survival finds him bravely, or foolishly, sneaking into and out of ghettos and Nazi camps. To Stanley, it’s only by luck that he avoids the mass deportations to the death camps. From the infamous Plaszow camp to liberation from Buchenwald, Stanley makes his way through the surprising and terror-filled Path That Luck Took.
