This is an absolutely stunning documentary in that you get to hear first-hand from people who were just observers of or who actually participated in the Nazi party during Hitler’s reign. Unbelievable is all I can say. The film footage is remarkable and the interviews intriguing because you - at least I was - are thinking to yourself the whole time, ‘How could this person have wanted to have been part of this when the word was getting around and people saw how Jewish people were being treated?’ It left me speechless, needless to say.
There are those interviewed who admit regret about what happened and what they might have done but then some used age - being too young to have regrets or able to do anything - as an excuse, which I did find upsetting. As such, it's a difficult film to watch at times but this is a piece of history that needs to be remembered - like slavery - so it doesn't happen again.
Do not let this one go by as it is a must watch!
Coming to theaters on May 21.
