Westerplatte, a small peninsula at Gdańsk Harbour’s entrance, was a Polish ammunition depot in the Free City of Danzig before WWII. Its 182 defenders – one infantry company plus civilians – had five sentries, a field cannon, two anti‑armor guns and four mortars. The war’s first shots were fired there, and the film chronicles the defenders’ courage.
