This dvd is an outstanding and educational look into the terrible sufferings endured by the Jewish community during and leading up to World War II. This is a film that everyone should see as it serves as an evidentiary example of the dangers racism in any form poses towards society. This is an excellent documentary with commentary from real people who provide a chilling first hand account of the horrific conditions they and millions of others were subjected to in concentrations camps like Auschwitz and Treblinka. As time passes many of the survivors have passed away and this film may provide one of the last in-depth looks through the eyes of those individuals who actually lived and worked in the concentration camps. I used this film as one of my primary resources for a pyschology term paper which was centered around Nazi war crimes and the perpetrators who commited them. The events that surrounded the Nazis' Final Solution is such an abstract and inconceivable concept that it does not seem real, but it is important that this moment in history never be forgotten. This documentary added great insight that simply cannot be found in books. Because the extermination of the Jews was such a top secret project, pictures and video were strictly forbidden. However, this film displays rare footage that shows the unimaginable conditions that millions were forced to live in on a daily basis.Vollständige Rezension lesen
This DVD set includes actual archival footage as well as well done re-enactments to illustrate the horrific things that the Nazi's did. There are interviews with a number of survivors who actually had to endure the cruelty as well interviews with those who were either involved or witnessed these things from the German side. Not only does this educational documentary deal with the specifics of what happened (which are covered in other films) but really deals in-depth with the gradual build up and the warped psychology of the perpetrators. In this unequaled century of murder and genocide, this presentation really illustrates the human capacity for unspeakable cruelty to other humans. There's a couple of snippets of the Nazi propaganda films. Having seen the warped "The Eternal Jew" one might understand the mindset of this generation of Germans. But there's no excuse. As one of the Nazi participants in this DVD said, he had broken his long silence to let people know he worked at Auschwitz and these things REALLY DID HAPPEN and those who say it didn't are lying!! A well done and important film about one of the saddest periods in human history. It's hard to watch for certain, yet essential viewingt.Vollständige Rezension lesen
with the 70th anniversary of the ending of ww2,it becomes a reality that the veterans who fought on both sides along with the perpetraters of these crimes and the survivors of this evil are dwindling in numbers.again one must ask, how a cultured and civilized society could and would allow this to happen? not sure if history is taught in high school,although am sure revisionist history is close at hand.this film should be on a mandatory watch list for all those 17 and 18. when a society becomes complacent and does not hold elected officials accountable for their actions or looks the other way because it does not affect themselves personally then you may not ,in retrospect, say you are shocked by what transpired. the reinactment of historical facts make this a must watch docu drama and i am sure if you have a soul that you will shake your head in disbelief, become very angry and even shed some tears as you watch this. i did.a must watch for all of those who have a stake in the welfare of humanity.Vollständige Rezension lesen
