    One of my favorite films of the decade so far. Very impressive how showing absolutely nothing of the horrors happening in the camp is somehow even more terrifying.

      this is not new, 'less' has always been 'more' in filmmaking. you should watch some of antonioni's, bergman's or even angelopoulos's work if you dig this type of narrative.

      My grandmother (were from eastern Ukraine) was a servant girl in a German household during the occupation. She lived until 86 and spoke very little of her experience as it was dangerous to do so during the Soviet times. I only know that they were kind to her and that their two sons did not come back from the eastern front. I’m only glad she didn’t live to see the invasion and occupation, this time from the other direction…

      'nothing of the horrors happening in the camp is somehow even more terrifying' - true, very true. But I'm a bit conflicted - the Death Camps are a fading memory or were never a memory. Witness Israeli Cabinet ministers talking about Palestinians as 'human animals', doing ethnic cleansing, hinting as elimination in some fashion (Israel has been discussing moving Palestinians to Africa). Hitler had earlier plans to not annihilate Jews but to deport them.

    I nursed one of the crematorium workers at the end of his life in Sydney 1992. He was rescued by the British and they told him they could send him anywhere in their colonies so he said send me as far away from Europe as possible and they sent him to Australia. He wrote his memories down for his family and anyone else to read if interested , it was horrific. The thing I remember most was when he opened the gas chamber doors and saw bleeding bodies piled in a pyramid shape as they clambered on top of each other scratching and tearing each other to get the last piece of air at the top of the room , children clinging to their mothers legs under skirts. I don’t think I could share the other things I read.

      When I was eight years old, I stumbled on one of my mother's book in our home library. Given that they work in the UNHCR ( United Nations Refugee Agency), it's a compilation of stories about refugees circa 1950's to early 1990's. I remember it to be a huge books with several pictures ofhouses burned by war, starving children, or families with the look of lost on their faces. What horrified me the most are the stories. I recalled reading the stories of Vietnamese people riding on crowded fishing boats riding through the sea for days and clueless on when they will reach land. During these trips, there was not enough food for the passengers on these boats. In there desperation, they sought to cannibalism.
      I remember that one dying passengers on the boat ( a middle age man) volunteered himself to be eaten. The witness ( the one telling the story) will then tell in excruciating detail on how the man was feasted upon by the time he took his last breath. When I came upon the part of a four year old child dying and the men plan to eat her as well....I just closed the book shut. No more. Said my eight year old self. No more. I don't know where that book is now but the content on what is written there had shook me more than any horror story. War can really show you the most bleakest side of humanity. The story was just words in a book, it must be unimaginable to be a part of it. God bless the souls who had experience it first hand. May they be at peace.

    The women who worked in the house were not Jewish (as Mr. Glazer explains in the video), it is clear that the men working outside were.
    As a researcher focusing on works of art stolen from Jews, I found Hedwig Höss's mother's dialogue interesting, when she said that she cleaned the house of a Jewish family and that she had a passion for her boss's curtains. She revealed that she was unable to buy the curtains because someone bid better than hers at the auction.
    Dutch museologist Peter van Mensch has long been denouncing the fact that German families are selling Jewish objects on the black market, to antique dealers and private collectors. The Nazis who were in possession of this war spoils are dying and their families are trying to get rid of these collections.

    My maternal great grandparents lived in a town that is within walking distance of the camp. They moved to America before the war. I knew they were from Poland, but I had no idea they were SO close to Auschwitz. I often wonder what their life would have been like if they'd stayed.
    My paternal great grandparents were Jews from Ukraine. They also left before the war. I found out recently that they actually lived in Chernobyl. All of that was news to me because their papers just say that they're from Russia, and my grandfather died before I was born, so I was never able to ask him about his family.
    Needless to say, everybody left at the right time!

    Yet in the comments, no one mentioned the heartbreaking scene with hoss with his children in the river, while hoss was fishing he picked something that hit him, it was a bone, he directly called for his children and mounted them on the boat and left. Since ashes were thrown in the river, when they arrived home they washed quickly, and the cam took the shot of the tub with all that came out of the children, and then when the maid was cleaning the tub after the shower, she was staring at it, hesitated. Thats the biggest scene in the movie. And during hoss's trial the accusation was that he was responsible of the mass killing of around 3.5 million people, many waited for his objection and denial but his response was no 2.5, and many of them died bcz of starvation. How cruel a human being can be?!!!

Eventually he was conscripted into the German army, against his will, of course. He deserted in Italy and found his way to the British forces. I wish I had asked him more about his experiences but I think he didn’t want to burden a young person with all that he had seen. One thing he did say was that when the German soldiers were told they were being sent to Russia, they started crying. They wouldn’t send Poles, because they thought they were unreliable.

    The juxtaposition of what is happening on both sides of the wall is so viscerally disturbing that it made my blood boil. There's a ho-hum neighborly ladies chat going on while human beings are being tortured and murdered over the fence. Businessmen are basically giving a Power Point presentation to potential clients about the newest model of crematory, while ashes are reigning down outside. Glazer gives us glaring glimpses where there is nothing to question, while we can only hear and use our mind's eye to "see" what is happening on the other side. This director's explanation is fascinating and the film is seriously one of the most vital movies that I've seen.

I've read in Germany that it doesn't quite impact as it should because it's shown without captions/subtitles. Conflicted - portraying one of the most immense crimes in human history as a family drama! Resonates with me - but something is missing and appreciation requires knowledge about the Death Camps. I've watched it twice now, will maybe watch a third time.

Another noticeable thing is that Huller, the star, sits with her back to the camera and not, as might be expected, facing the camera. Notice how the servant girl swivels her hips ever so slightly to avoid bumping into the woman's chair. And "Canada" as a source of amusement to the three women. Horrifying.

    Just watched this movie on prime...not realizing it was supposed to have subtitles (I just assumed prime would know if it was supposed to have them or not) and I still felt like I knew exactly what was going on. Just made me listen the gunshots and screams even more.

    Hi. I wanted to see this film and was preparing to go to the cinema when I found out that it was subtitled. I did not go, such a pity. I am dyslexic and the subtitles do not stay on the screen long enough for me to finish reading also they are usually white and become invisible when they are overlaid on a white background which often happens I want to look at the photography and not spend my time reading. If the film is remade in English please let me know. best wishes. GarryUK

    If anyone here knows enough German, what was the word that the characters used for "pieces instead of human beings"?
    And what is the context of that word in its truest form in German usage?
    Like chess pieces? Or rather like art or items of furniture?

    The motorbike that’s heard in the background was a real life thing that took place. The real Ruldolf Hoss hired somebody to ride the bike around to mask the noises of the concentration camp.

    How ironic that Hanna Arendt's theory on the banalisation of evil would be so thoroughly applied by the descendants of those who suffered so much because of it.

    Sometimes, I so despise my affiliation with humanity. This film has done its work on me well. Makes me wonder why we deserve to be, when animals deserve to walk this earth more than we .

    Just this clip was horrifying as my mind filled in what is going on in the camps at the very moment this domestic banality is happening.

    I am in awe of everything about this film, from the new POV, and a different kind of holocaust film to all 10 cameras used simultaneously, oh my! to the black-and-white starkness, to the benign nature of humanity's atrocities through riveting characters and story.

    A monumental horror movie of the domestic life of a concentration camp commander. On display is the absences of humanity which is now displayed in Gaza.

    Couldn't anyone tell this man that the umlaut in Höss changes the sound into a u-sound as in turn. It is not pronounced Hoss but Hus

    If you watch it on MAX, the captions are TERRIBLE. They are white and the background is white in much of the movie meaning if you don't speak German, you miss about 1/4 of the movie.
