Reviews

I liked the film. I did not agree with the previous reviewer about the filmmaker "using" the visitors in any way. He is just documenting, cinema verité style, and the shots of visitor after visitor taking selfies in Aushwitz speak for themselves. This is clearly cinematic work, for a big screen, but I watched it on a small screen, and it was fine, too. I occasionally think what would have happened if the filmmaker took an outside view and showed us how it "should be," what the site should be for these tourists, explained for the viewer - American style, like everything is explained in American documentaries - but this is not the director's style, not his form, so I was okay with it. This film could have been a short, probably better as a short... But then again, it was director's choice, all to be respected.
