To wszawe nagie życie

Heinrich George was a German actor who began his career in silent film. Although he was an active member of the German Communist Party before the Nazis came to power, he could be seen in many fascist propaganda films in the 1930s and during World War II. After the war, George, his wife and children were imprisoned by the Red Army in Sachsenhausen. George died during an appendectomy in 1946.
