Come enjoy a discussion of The Zookeeper's Wife: A War Story by Diane Ackerman

A true story in which the keepers of the Warsaw Zoo saved hundreds of people from Nazi hands. When Germany invaded Poland, Stuka bombers devastated Warsaw—and the city's zoo along with it. With most of their animals dead, zookeepers Jan and Antonina Zabinski began smuggling Jews into empty cages. Another dozen "guests" hid inside the Zabinskis' villa, emerging after dark for dinner, socializing, and, during rare moments of calm, for piano concerts. Jan, active in the Polish resistance, kept ammunition buried in the elephant enclosure and stashed explosives in the animal hospital. Meanwhile, Antonina kept her unusual household afloat, caring for both its human and its animal inhabitants -- otters, a badger, hyena pups, lynxes.

Starring Ben Affleck, Alan Arkin, and John Goodman.  Based on real events, this dramatic thriller chronicles the life-or-death cover operation to rescue six Americans, which unfolded behind the scenes of the Iran hostage crisis.  Rated R; 120 min.

Registration is limited to Warwick cardholders only.
