About truth

Rating: Null/10 (29 December 2011)

A book for children. And a movie for remember. The war. Shoah. And delicate frontiers of friendship in the childhood territory. Tale of a boy and his homesickness. Need to build an alternative world. A wire fence. And another boy. Different existence but same seed. And the courage to understand the other like final note of a song. John Boyne novel is a story ad usum delphini. The film is not exactly an adaptation.It is drawing of each adult secret , ambiguous for its masters, cruel for others but clear only for a child. A sketch about innocence measure and its science of sacrifice. About final ash of lie and hypocrisy, solitude and dead hopes. And heart of curiosity as form to give live to reality. It is a film about Nazi and death camps and cruelty and way to cancel the other presence. To manipulate and to destroy. But each piece is only minor detail. The essence is the regards of Bruno. And Shmuel.
