About Schindler’s Ark
Schindler’s Ark is based on the true story of the actions of Oskar Schindler, a Sudeten German industrialist who used his factories and contacts in the Nazi Party to save over a thousand Jews from deportation to concentration camps during the Holocaust. His willingness to risk his own life to save Jews from almost certain death meant that he was subsequently named one of the Righteous Among the Nations by the State of Israel. Schindler’s Ark won the 1982 Man Booker Prize, and in 1993 was adapted into a critically acclaimed film directed by Steven Spielberg.
