“Bau, Artist at War” is based on the true story of Joseph and Rebecca Bau, whose wedding took place in the Plaszow concentration camp during WWII, an event immortalized in Steven Spielberg’s Schindler’s List. This film is a war drama, love story, and espionage tale that needs to be told in this era where survivors are dying, and the Holocaust is slipping from memory. Using his artistic skills and his sense of humor in the camps, Joseph stays alive and helps hundreds to escape. Miraculously, he finds love in the midst of despair-a love that will last a lifetime. Years later, when called to be a key witness in the trial of the brutal Nazi officer who tortured him and killed his father, he is thrust back into vivid memories of the Holocaust and calls upon this love and resilience of spirit to face the ultimate demon of his past.

“Bau, Artist at War is a bit like Schindler’s List meets Life is Beautiful – a captivating portrayal of courage, hope, love, and humor even in the worst of times.” -Gerald Korson, Editor, Legatus Magazine.

“The brilliance of BAU: Artist at War lies in its ability to show us that a life of profound humility, heroic patience, and lively faith can flourish even in the most barren soil.” – O’Maria Akpati, speaker, writer, radio show host, and True Beauty advocate.
