"A bear named Wojtek," a new Polish-British animated movie based on an unlikely, but nevertheless true story of a bear which spent the Second World War with Polish soldiers under General Anders. Wojtek was more than a mascot. For example, during the battle of Monte Cassino he helped soldiers carry munitions. After the war, the hero-bear retired to Edinburgh zoo. There's been a monument to him in that town since 2015, and as of this year, October the 20th will be known as "Wojtek Day".
