Film Lesson: "Night and Fog"


The film "Night and Fog" was about the Nazi concentration camps. It shows how the Jews people were killed. When I was seeing the movie I felt that "Night and Fog" was a perfect title for it. "Night" because it was the darkest period in human history, and "Fog" because it showed us how the rest of the world was blinded to the abject horror of the concentration camps. The imagery of this short documentary was so powerful and devastating, that i couldn't believe of all the harm that the Nazis caused the Jews, only because Hitler hated them just because he thought they were an inferior race and blamed them for Germany's problems.

I think that the Hollywood version was more effectively because in it is shows everything detail by detail how the Jews were tortured before they were killed, and also it shows how the Nazis enjoyed seeing the Jews suffered, but they didn't have any compassion for them.
