What is happening in this clip?
Szpilman was a Polish-Jewish Pianist and he was discovered by his neighbor in the first hiding place. He escaped quickly worrying that he would be reported to the German. In the clip he was brought to an apartment where German troops are around. However, he was compelled to be quiet for that people might discover him again. His friend left him little food supplies and left. Sitting in front of his beloved instrument, Szpilman suspended his hands on piano keys , let the music flow in his mind .
It seems that the old man is trying to help the pianist to hide from the german government. He introduces the surroundings to him and tells him that he will lock the door and asks him to be quiet. So no one will finds him out. I have been to germany and I am quite interested in the british-german accent. I would like to see this movie myself!

Now, his favourite instrument laid right in front of him, making him struggle between the risk of being found, and the impluse of playing the piano. At last, he chose the later.
