The story
Doctor Jan Żabiński is director of the Warsaw Zoo, one of Europe's largest, assisted by his wife, Antonina.
Warsaw's Jews are forced into the Warsaw Ghetto and the Żabińskis' Jewish friends, Maurycy Fraenkel and Magda Gross, seek a safe place for their friend Szymon Tenenbaum's insect collection.
Antonina plays the piano at night to signal it is safe to come out of hiding, and by day if they must hide.
