《华沙一九四四》，是充满活力与热情的华沙年轻人的故事，他们活得仿佛每一天都是他们生命中的最后一天；但他们之所以这样，并非是虚张声势或年轻鲁莽——而是他们周围现实中司空见惯的生活态度。影片的主要角色首次出场时，是在华沙起义爆发前不久。他们加入了地下组织，不仅是为了履行爱国义务，同时也开启了一段青春冒险，可以跟同龄人吹嘘还可以吸引女孩子。在地下组织培训时，他们边调情、炫耀，边制订计划；殊不知接下来的那个夏天将是他们生命的考验，而历史已经为他们做好了计划…… 因友谊而凝聚在一起，《华沙一九四四》中的角色们成了华沙起义战斗中最为勇敢的组织之一。他们见证了牺牲精神和英雄气概，也看见了残忍、背叛与谋杀；他们懂得了爱，也体会了什么叫仇恨。尽管他们不情愿，历史还是在他们成熟的过程中，给他们上了血腥残酷的一课。
