Le prix de la paix

This is a fantastic story, extremely well-written and beautifully portrayed. The acting is superb. The storylines are well developed. And the underlying themes are true, even if some dramatic license has been taken. I am not familiar with the Swiss story of Jewish refugees post-war; only the Swiss complicity in stealing Jewish assets and protecting those of the Nazis. In Labyrinth of Peace, each of these themes surfaces, as they should. It is a shameful part of European, Swiss, and World history, and the cover-ups and protection for the sake of money, status, and pragmatic justifications exist to the present day. I saw this as part of a film festival offering. It was five hours long and well-worth the investment.

Highly recommended.
