Une journée - Rapport d'un camp de concentration allemand en 1939

This is the best Holocaust/concentration camp film I ever saw. It describes one day from roll call in the dark of early morning to the dark of evening all in the freezing cold as the prisoners are forced to stand for interminable lengths of time. I am not Jewish and have no special interest in Holocaust films. But this film is a classic that cannot be allowed to disappear. I'm surprised that there is not more attention around this film. One reason may be is that is not about Jews. The prisoners to my perception are all, with one exception, non-Jewish political and others. If a prisoner commits an offense he is sent "down" to work with the Jews in some unimaginable inferno.

I saw this film 40 some years ago and it is impossible to forget. I have been searching for it ever since and finally found it on YouTube this week but only in German. I haven't been able to find an English language or sub-titled in English version.

This film should be in the Holocaust Museum. It shows the horror of the camps like no other film I have ever seen. It's a must for Holocaust archives.

This is probably the best film i have ever seen.From the moment the film starts you can feel for the prisoners in the camp. Scantily clad political and religious prisoners so harshly treated and in what seems to be such a cold and desolate place. With just a thin prison garment and many having no shoes,with the sleet coming down almost constantly.The prisoners are constantly being beaten for trying to keep warm but wear anything under your prison garment even a newspaper and you are savagely and mercilessly beaten. Even for having a religious view one prisoner for not penancing god was hauled up on a post by his hands that were tied behind his back. Show that you are a bit frail and the guards will work you to death. As the sleet falls one prisoner dies and there is a scramble for his wooden clogs.If you ever want to see a film that is Drama of the very best then watch Tag you will never forget it and it will be etched in your mind forever.
