The Zone of Interest (2023)
depressing and a necessary watch
23 May 2024 - 1 out of 1 users found this review helpful.
One of those films that is incredibly difficult to watch, I kept feeling like getting up and walking around the room, uncomfortable and yet compelling. We need these films to remind us that this is a real part of life, and these events involved ordinary people, living normal lives, just like the rest of us. Terrifying.
The story starts out with general scenes of the family in their normal household routine, and it takes awhile before you figure out there is more going on than meets the eye. The slow dawning of the truth is what compels the story forward.
The acting is all very top notch, and the subtitles are well done, writing as a bilingual viewer.
Please do not show this film to children or young adults!
