Extraordinary film about the Holocaust and can’t recommend it enough. The use of sound to portray the horrors of the camp in juxtaposition to the daily life of a German family is amazing. It’s a fresh take on the genre.

Very different from Jojo Rabbit of course, but fantastic for showing what humans can come to consider the trivialities of ordinary life.

I'm very happy I saw it in the cinema. Also very happy I was somehow completely oblivious to the thematic when the movie started: I first saw the swimsuits, thinking "huh, is this the 30s?". Then I heard the German, at which point I realized nothing good was going to go down. I guess the sound during the intro also gave a hint.

Anyway, amazing movie. Worth seeing without distractions.
