𝙄𝙣𝙖 𝘽𝙚𝙣𝙞𝙩𝙖 (March 1, 1912 - September 9, 1984) was born as Janina Florov-Bulhak in Kiev, Ukraine. Her date of birth or the fate of the actress is often shrouded in mystery, full of insinuations, so the birth date is probably not accurate. As the actress herself said, she was born a year later and in Georgia. It is certain that the first femme fatale of Polish cinema moved to Poland in 1920 during the Russian Civil War. She graduated from the Paris Sacré-Cœur School and the H. J. Hryniewiecki Vocal and Dramatic Courses in Warsaw. She made her debut on August 29, 1931 in the program Paradise Without Men, then in the Femina cabaret. In 1932, she made her debut in the film "Puszcza" ("The Forest") as a young heiress named Renia. She starred in such films as "Hanka,", "Jego ekscelencja subiekt" ("His Excellency, the Shop Assistant") and "Ludzie Wisły" ("People of the Vistula River"). During World War II she cooperated with the counter intelligence of the ZWK-AK. She contributed to the release of actor Franciszek Brodniewicz from the German Pawiak prison and actor Zbigniew Sawan from Auschwitz. With her partner Otto Haver, an Austrian, she was accused of Rassenschande "disgracing the race." In 1943, she hooked up with German dissident Hans Georg Pasch. They ended up in Pawiak together. There she gave birth to a son, Tadeusz (Thaddeus). On August 31, 1944, she was released from prison. For many years it was believed that she died during the Warsaw Uprising, which broke out on August 1, 1944. In fact, in Lower Saxony she married Hans, who was murdered not much after the wedding. Ina traveled with her son to the Côte d'Azur, performing in the local pubs. There she met American Lloyd Fraser Scudder, whom she married in only 1954 through the man's divorce. In 1950 she bore him a son, John. They settled in Middletown, Pennsylvania. Her husband died in 1964 of lung cancer. He was the love of her life and after his death she did not want another man. She did not talk about her career in Poland or her wartime fate. Ina died in Mechanicsburg and was buried in Middletown Cemetery. Decades later, her grandchildren Greg and Alexandria Scudder flew to Poland and Germany to discover their grandmother's true fate.
