        Writing this name makes my heart tremble, even this is a movie I have always wanted to avoid, but I know it has always been in my heart, always, as for what effect it has on me, I have never They tried hard not to face it, because it was too painful.

      escape from sobibor

      In 1944, near the end of World War II, the Nazi army established three concentration camps for prisoners on death row in eastern Poland, one of which was called Sobibor. In another concentration camp, there was a mass exodus, and the officials in charge of Sobibor vowed never to let such a thing happen in Sobibor. In this torture camp, escape was the only way out. Even more serious, if a group of prisoners escaped, the Germans would slaughter a corresponding number of prisoners. Any larger...

      Half of the shock and thinking

         Sometimes watching TV can also come across a good movie, although the opportunity is very rare.
          I was almost halfway through the movie when I saw it, but the obvious WWII setting and unique atmosphere still attracted me. The first scene is that the three fugitives caused thirteen Jews who tried to escape to be punished in front of their companions, and the poor thirteen people had to choose one from their companions to accompany them to die together. Without so much timidity and...

      The film shows the calm, perseverance and tenacious behavior of Jews

      More than 600 Jews in Sobibor, their fathers, mothers, sisters, younger brothers, husbands or wives, were taken away by German Nazis and never seen again. Who is burning under the big chimney in Sobibor? corpse? Jews know. There can be no babies alive in concentration camps. Jewish women know. What the Jews can do is not revenge, but processing jewelry and clothing for the Nazis. Serve the Nazis without error and do their hard labor. Survival is a prerequisite for freedom! Hate and love are...

      Escape from a concentration camp has never been a happy, leisurely, witty and interesting thing; the last rush and bloodshed in the minefields and forests in the hail of bullets is the epitome of the war group portraits and the narration of historical facts to shock the sense of age and...

      There are bullets behind and mines underfoot, everyone runs forward desperately, towards freedom, towards hope. Impressively, of the 13 people who escaped and were caught, everyone must choose someone to die with them, if not To choose, it is necessary for the Nazis to choose 50 people, 13 people and 50 people. Comparing this with the Nuremberg trial, it seems like a world away. . In this extermination camp, a few people, a group of people, or even a group of people can be kicked into the...

      Barely pass. This film really concentrates the seriousness and rigidity of the British, but it respects the oral history. The follow-up experience of several real prototypes is released at the end of the film. The life in the previous concentration camp should also be shown according to their description. This Sobibor is essentially a big The crematorium is poisoned and burned when people arrive. Only professionals such as tailors, carpenters, and goldsmiths will survive and work. Moving the...

    • Old Man: Observe:

      [scattering sand on the ground]

      Old Man: Do you see? How I am scattering this? Grain by grain. That will be what will happen with your filthy Reich. It will vanish like flying dust and passing smoke.

      Narrator: In 1942, SS chief Heinrich Himmler initiated "Operation Reinhard," NAZI-Germany's "Final Solution" to the "Jewish question". Three death camps were built and staffed, under top-secret orders. These camps, all in eastern Poland, were Belzec, Treblinka, and the most secret, Sobibor. It was here, on October 14th, 1943, that the biggest, most successful prisoner revolt in WW2 took place. This is that story.

    • [last lines]

      Narrator: October the 14th, 1943, Sobibor. A Nazi death camp where over one quarter million Jews were killed. But on the revolt that day, over 300 of the 600 prisoners made it to freedom, something which had never happened before, and would never happen again in WW2. Within days, SS chief Himmler ordered the camp closed, dismantled, and planted with pine trees. In that forest now stands this monument to the dead. It is also a reminder of the valiant fighters of Sobibor, who are among those who began to make the idea and the vow "never again" a reality.
