Based on the true story of the Polish emissary and produced by Eva Anisko, Remember This is a cinematic adaptation of the original stage production Remember This: The Lesson of Jan Karski, written by Derek Goldman and Clark Young and created at the Laboratory for Global Performance and Politics at Georgetown University.

In a virtuoso solo performance, Academy Award nominee David Strathairn (Good Night, and Good Luck, Lincoln, Nomadland, Where the Crawdads Sing) portrays Jan Karski in this genre-defying true story of a World War II hero and Holocaust witness. After surviving the devastation of the Blitzkrieg, Karski swears allegiance to the Polish Underground and risks his life to carry the first eyewitness reports of the Holocaust to the Western world and ultimately, the White House. After escaping a Gestapo prison, where he was subjected to horrific physical torture, Karski endures unspeakable mental anguish, bearing witness to the despair of the Warsaw ghetto and the inhumanity of a death camp. Yet, he stands tall in the halls of power and speaks the truth. Strathairn captures the complexity and legacy of this self-described “insignificant, little man” whose timely story of moral courage and individual responsibility can still shake the conscience of the world.

The Jan Karski Educational Foundation serves as the fiscal sponsor for the film, and all donations to support the film that go through the Foundation are tax-deductible.
