Auschwitz commandant Rudolf Höss and his wife Hedwig strive to build a dream life for their family in a house and garden beside the camp. The film is a dispassionate examination of the ordinary existence of people complicit in horrific crimes, it forces us to take a cold look at the mundanity behind an unforgivable brutality.
'The brutal hook of the film is in how it demonstrates the ease in which people, given the right circumstances, can become complicit in evil.' Callum Cooper, In Their Own League
'Jonathan Glazer turns us into witnesses of the most mundane, banal, and repugnant side of the Holocaust in a technical, narrative, and above all, hyper-realistic and discourse-driven masterpiece worthy of the most terrible nightmares.' Victor Lopez G, Espinof
