A very interesting film that I strongly recommend

Rating: 7/10 (19 August 2016)

Saul, the dead child and his obsession to give him a Jewish bury are the conducting line of fiction in order to show and tell all the true characters and plots regarding the Auschwitz-Birkenau:
-Gas chambers -Auschwitz Crematoriums -the Sonderkommandos -the Sonderkommando rebellion (7 October 1944) -the character of Doctor Miklós Nyiszli and his autopsy and operating room under supervision of Josef Mengele -the four Sonderkommando photographs taken and leaked out of Auschwitz to the Polish resistance -the reception of thousands of prisoners from sub-camps to be killed -the massive killings in the open air because Crematoriums were fully booked
mainly based on writings of Nyiszli and Primo Levi even minor facts like the surviving woman after the gas chamber that was killed by pistol fire.
Other matters have not been depicted in the film:
the very privileged status of Kapos and Sonderkommando members as Nyiszli described in his book is not included in the film (it is difficult to explain the Sonderkommando rebellion if they were so privileged )
A very interesting film that I strongly recommend.
