The major part of the article is the filmography embracing films made by Polish producers in whole or in part (both documentaries and feature films) concerning the Holocaust in the broad sense. It contains the following information about 140 such films, produced between 1944 and 2009: year of release, title, director, subject. The filmography does not embrace film on concentration camp subjects unless they deal directly with the Holocaust. In the introduction, the authoress reviewed some important issued influencing the subjects of the films discussed, including in particular the presence of preventing censorship on all the major films produced in Poland, which continued until as late as 1989. She discussed the main topics and screen adaptations of literary works. She drew attention to the exceptional role of the cinema in social transmission of knowledge about the Holocaust and the blurring of the boundary between documentary and feature films.

The article presents a selection of documents from a 1949 trial, which concluded with the sentence of three ZWZ-AK members, Opatów district, by the Court of Appeals in Kielce - Józef Mularski, Leon Nowak and Edward Perzynski - for complicity in the murder of 12 Jews from the Ostrowiec Swiętokrzyski ghetto in a forest near Kunów. Two of them, severely wounded, returned to the ghetto; one of them survived the war (Szloma Icek Zweigman), and after emigration submitted a detailed and extensive testimony regarding the incident. Zweigman's testimony was the foundation of the investigation and the indictment. Mularski and Nowak, sentenced to death, were subsequently pardoned and released from prison after 1956, as was the third convict. The case was closed as follows: sentence of 1957 to pardon Józef Mularski, followed by another verdict of 2000 that provided for a high compensation. The presented materials are not only proof that members of the Polish underground committed crimes against Jews, but also demonstrate how the Polish judiciary and the Main Commission to Investigate Nazi Crimes in Poland operated. The latter clearly conducted a policy of papering over those criminal cases in which Poles were the perpetrators. The issues raised in the article are inadequately researched, not only in Polish historiography. The presented trial materials come from the Archives of the Institute of National Remembrance
