At the beginning of the film "Schindler's List," Oskar Schindler is primarily motivated by his desire for wealth and social status. He seeks to establish a successful business and gain favor with the Nazi regime, viewing the exploitation of Jewish labor as a means to achieve his goals. His initial interactions reflect a self-serving ambition, with little regard for the moral implications of his actions or the plight of the Jewish people. This perspective begins to shift as he becomes increasingly aware of the horrors faced by those around him.

Who was a resistance of the holocaust?

Poland had the largest network of resistance, and you should look up figures within the Polish Underground Army. For a specific answer, a German industrialist called Oskar Schindler helped to save hundreds of Jews during the war. There was also a brilliant book written about him called 'Schindler's' Ark, and an equally brilliant film called 'Schindler's List' which is definitely worth a watch. The Bielski Partisans were another resistance group in Russia. A film about them is 'Defiance' starring Daniel Craig.
