Answer:

Schindler owned a factory called Deutsche Emaillewaren-Fabrik and had secured numerous German army contracts for kitchenware. He staffed a Jewish accountant who in turn connected him with the Krakow's Jewish community to staff the factory. His company grew and he only hired Jewish workers. The Nazis started relocating his workers to the labor camps. He devised a plan; creating a list of workers who was essential to the war effort, to give to the Nazis. This list freed his workers and they continued to work in the factory. This list saved the Krakow Jewish population because his plan was not to help the Nazis. Schindler ordered his workers to purposefully make defective products that would fail inspections. Those workers who were on the list spent the remaining months in the factory during the war and their lives were spared. He basically saved 1,100 Jewish people.
