Based on the true events of the life of Ludwig (Lale) Sokolov, the novel by Heather Morris is a Testament to the human spirit and the power of love to blossom even in the darkest places. And it's hard to imagine a darker place than the Auschwitz/Birkenau concentration camp. In 1942, Lale, like other Slovak Jews, was sent to Auschwitz. Once there, he, thanks to the fact that he speaks several languages, gets a job as a tattoo artist and with terrifying speed fills the rooms of new prisoners, and for this he receives some privileges: a separate room, food is slightly better than the others, and the relative freedom to move around the camp. One day in July 1942, Lale, prisoner 32407, puts the number 34902 on the hand of a trembling young woman. Her name is Geeta. Despite their plight, despite the fact that each day may be the last, they fall in love and against all odds believe that they will be able to survive in these inhuman conditions. Although Lale's position as a tattoo artist is relatively better than that of the other prisoners, it does not protect him from the brutality of the SS. Again and again he risks his life to help his fellow sufferers and especially Gita and her friends. Despite the constant threat of death, Lale and Geeta never stop believing in the future. And in this future they will definitely live together-happily ever after…
