The Tattooist of Auschwitz Trailer: Jonah Hauer-King Leads Peacock’s Holocaust Drama

Peacock has shared a trailer for its newest limited drama, The Tattooist of Auschwitz, starring The Little Mermaid’s Jonah Hauer-King. The video highlights the love story between two Auschwitz prisoners as they give each other strength and support to survive a place of terror and despair.

“In the event series, Lali (Hauer-King) arrived at Auschwitz-Birkenau in 1942, and shortly after arrival, he was made one of the tätowierer (tattooists), charged to ink identification numbers onto fellow prisoners’ arms,” reads the synopsis. “One day, he meets Gita when tattooing her prisoner number on her arm. They experience love at first sight, and so begins a courageous, unforgettable, and human story. Under constant guard from a volatile Nazi SS officer Baretzki, Lali and Gita became determined to keep each other alive. Around 60 years later, Lali meets novice writer Heather Morris. Recently widowed, Lali finds the courage to tell the world his story. In recounting his story to Heather, Lali, in his 80s, faces the traumatic ghosts of his youth and relives his memories of falling in love in the most horrific of places.”
