Hodnotenia a recenzie

Never knew who, what, where, or why of any part of the movie. So many singular scenes with noise and random scenes. I watched because I heard the sound designer make it sound like this was a really sensitive, thought provoking movie. I kept watching only because I thought there would be an amazing reveal at the end. Nope... watched about 7 minutes of Rudolph Hoss descend steps, stopping to puke and spit every now and then. Did he have a sudden turn of conscience? Not likely. Hated it.

Powerful in its quiet intensity & one's ability to deny reality.

great movie to be shown in schools
