Kurzinhalt
In May 1943, a member of the Polish government in exile, Szmul Zygielbojm, committed suicide in London. The investigation carried out by the British coroner's office allows to discover his fate. It shows that the suicide was an act of despair due to the Allied countries' indifference to the extermination of the Jews.
A story about the tragic fate of a Jewish political activist who committed suicide on 12th May 1943 in London. What he did was supposed to be a sign of protest against the world’s passive attitude towards the tragedy of Holocaust. The story is told from the point of view of a young British journalist who, as most of the people living in the West back then, was unaware of the extent of the crime taking place in the east of Europe at that time.
