The script pointedly shows many different perspectives of the victims of the German Nazi's holocaust: Communists, Zionists, homosexuals, artists, Germans, Poles, others - and how they perceive what is happening to them. Also the horror for these individuals to survive day after day while others are killed around them. And the struggle to retain a sense of being human. Wonderfully written. Hard to watch for sure. A must-see.
Despite the handful of heavy handed lines referring to historical events in Armenia since 1914, the filming is beautiful, the actors are wonderful, and the story is touching and believable. Quite a cast of veteran actors! It's unfortunate that a Guatemalan is playing an Armenian, but Oscar Isaac is a very good actor - I was quite moved by a few scenes he nailed emotionally. I'm sure there will be plenty of criticism around the roles of the U.S., Turkey and Germany. I don't think the political mishmash is enough reason to skip this movie - it has stuck with me these past few days,and to me that is a sign of good entertainment.
