Los invisibles

One reviewer here asks how much more drama can be "squeezed" from this "event". I would answer an infinite amount. There will never be too much that can be said or portrayed about the largest act of genocide, torture and madness. To the already copious number of films on the subject, comes The Invisibles, a docudrama, so labeled with names of the two genres that combine successfully to make up this film. I thought the combination worked extremely well. Having the actual photographic footage of Berlin during the war gave the film an aura of authenticity that enhanced it. Also, the interviewing of the survivors, combined with enactments of what they were reporting, also worked extremely well. In fact, seeing and listening to them made watching the film more bearable for me as I knew they avoided the horrific fate that most of their compatriots didn't. The only reason I rated The Invisibles a 9 and not a 10 was because in a couple of instances I experienced some confusion, mainly about who was who. I think there could have been a bit more clarity in this area. Other than that, the world now has another documentation of something that you'd think happens only in nightmares.

A reviewer incredibly asks how much more drama can be "squeezed" out of the event of nazi rule and the holocaust? The sick of mind are still amongst us. What sort of pathetic human being asks such a question.

A wonderful documentary- drama. These men and women tell their story perfectly. You feel like you are there with them along their monstrous but ultimately successful journey into And out of hell On earth......

Die Unsichtbaren / The Invisibles (2017)

This film is absolutely unique; it combines interviews with four remarkable Jewish people that, through all odds, managed to survive the Nazi invasions in Berlin along with a feature film type story that depicts these four as youth in 1943, and also includes vintage clips. The interviews are priceless; the actors are engaging and excellent; and each storyline is intriguing on it's own. Although each of the four stories is separate without intersecting with the others, the narrative is captivating and the film flows along and mesmerizes. Die Unsichtbaren depicts the courage, wits, and resistance of both the Jewish survivors and the German citizens who put themselves in harm's way to help them. I highly recommend this film.

This is a must-see movie. A masterpiece of this genre...a blend of interviews, re-enactment and war-time film footage interspersed.

The individuals who were interviewed were eloquent, charming and insightful.

How important is to see how many Germans risked their lives to do the right thing. Rather amazing. I have watched the movie several times, and am moved to tears by the end.

Claus Räfle is amazing. It is such a pity that the film didn't have a wider distribution. But the film, will one day, get the exposure it deserves.
