This beautiful, illuminating tale of hope and courage is based on interviews that were conducted with Holocaust survivor and Auschwitz-Birkenau tattooist Ludwig (Lale) Sokolov - an unforgettable love story in the midst of atrocity.

In April 1942, Lale Sokolov, a Slovakian Jew, is forcibly transported to the concentration camps at Auschwitz-Birkenau. When his captors discover he speaks several languages, he is put to work as a Tätowierer (the German word for "tattooist"), tasked with permanently marking his fellow prisoners.

Imprisoned for more than two and a half years, Lale witnesses horrific atrocities and barbarism - but also incredible acts of bravery and compassion. Risking his own life, he uses his privileged position to exchange jewels and money from murdered Jews for food to keep his fellow prisoners alive.

One day in July 1942, Lale, prisoner 32407, comforts a trembling young woman waiting in line to have the number 34902 tattooed onto her arm. Her name is Gita, and in that first encounter, Lale vows to somehow survive the camp and marry her.

A vivid, harrowing, and ultimately hopeful recreation of Lale Sokolov's experiences as the man who tattooed the arms of thousands of prisoners with what would become one of the most potent symbols of the Holocaust, The Tattooist of Auschwitz is also a testament to the endurance of love and humanity under the darkest possible conditions.

Hans Zimmer
(1957) ist ein deutscher Filmmusikkomponist und Plattenproduzent. Seit den 1980er Jahren hat er Musik für über 150 Filme komponiert. Zimmer wurde in Frankfurt am Main geboren. Als kleines Kind lebte er in Königstein-Falkenstein, wo er zu Hause Klavier spielte, aber nur kurz Klavierunterricht hatte, da er die Disziplin des formalen Unterrichts nicht mochte: "Meine formale Ausbildung bestand aus 2 Wochen Klavierunterricht. Ich bin aus 8 Schulen rausgeflogen. Aber ich habe mich einer Band angeschlossen. Ich bin Autodidakt. Aber ich habe schon immer Musik in meinem Kopf gehört. Und ich bin ein Kind des 20. Jahrhunderts; der Computer kam mir sehr gelegen. In einer Rede bei den Berliner Filmfestspielen 1999 erklärte Zimmer, dass er Jude ist, und erzählte, dass seine Mutter den Zweiten Weltkrieg dank ihrer Flucht aus Deutschland nach England im Jahr 1939 überlebt hat. Über seine Eltern sagte er: "Meine Mutter war sehr musikalisch, im Grunde eine Musikerin, und mein Vater war ein Ingenieur und Erfinder. Ich wuchs also damit auf, das Klavier zu modifizieren, was meine Mutter entsetzt aufschrecken ließ, während mein Vater es fantastisch fand.
