In April 1942, Slovak Jew Lale was forcibly sent to Auschwitz. The multilingual Lale was forced to work as a tattoo artist in the concentration camp, where he had to leave permanent marks on the skin of thousands of prisoners. In the concentration camp, Lale witnessed horrific atrocities and also witnessed the kindness of human nature. He risked his life and used his privilege to extend the lives of his surviving compatriots by exchanging jewelry and money from the murdered Jews in exchange for food and medicine. One day, Lale met a young woman in the queue waiting for a tattoo, and he had to tattoo the number "4562" on her arm. At that moment, Lale silently vowed that they must survive and enjoy a happy life under the free sky... "The Tattooist of Auschwitz" is based on real people and true stories, telling a story about humanity and hope. Under the haze of the Nazis, witness the eternity of miracles and love.
