PERIOD 3 - "THE UPRISING!"
Between July 22 and September 12, 1942, the German authorities deported or murdered around 400,000 Jews in the Warsaw ghetto. The Germans then began the operation to destroy the remaining Jews in the Warsaw ghetto on April 19, 1943, the eve of Passover. The renewal of deportations was the signal for an armed uprising within the ghetto. The Uprising lasted for more than a month. The German forces originally estimated that it would only last a few days. In your post cite what you learned that you did not know before watching the film.
