The video discusses Polish historian Adam Cera teaching about Witold Poletski, a WWII hero. Poletski volunteered to be imprisoned in Auschwitz to gather intelligence for the Allies. He organized a resistance within the camp and reported on Nazi atrocities. After escaping, he rejoined his family and later participated in the Warsaw Uprising.
