It is 1940. The first transport of prisoners arrives at the newly created concentration camp Auschwitz. One of them is Tadeusz “Teddy” Pietrzykowski, pre-war boxing champion of Warsaw.

Auschwitz officers notice the growing resistance. The confrontation with the authorities of the camp becomes inevitable.
