I'll Find You (2019)
2/10
Painful to watch
21 September 2023
To use such a dark period, the holocaust, the war, as a background to a romantic story worthy of a photo novel for brainless young girls is at best out of touch, at worse a calculated attempt to depict this horrible period and the crimes involving Germans and Poles alike as not so grave. See, they got concerts at Auschwitz, a happy ending, and everything is squeaky clean. I felt uneasy watching it. This kind of exercise rewriting history have been seen a lot lately on behalf of the countries trying to clean up their image. I am not saying they should dwell on it, simply don't use such a background for simplistic romantic stories only to add drama at the expense of real suffering.
