Warsaw in September 1939. Chronicle of Besieged Warsaw

10 min

The footage from the Chronicle of besieged Warsaw is probably the work of the cameramen of the so-called 'Starzyński team'. The fragmentary images of bombarded Warsaw, including the ruined streets of the Old Town, the burning Royal Castle, the bodies of passers-by on the pavement, were recorded in September 1939 with a view to later editing.
