The British TV movie " Escape from Sobibor " released in 1987 is about the over-camping incident that took place here.
Particularly impressive images:
1. In the movie we see how SS officers brutally punished with almost sadistic pleasure, most Jews were tricked into "bathing" - meaning they were poisoned and then - within hours of arriving Burned, the huge black smoke that rose in the sky that day was a horrific reminder of the constant murder of Jews. When they learned that their relatives were sent to the so-called bath, which turned out to be death, the crying displayed by his acting skills was the kind of silent discomfort that almost overflowed the screen.
2. The mother's expression when she would rather die to protect her child is in stark contrast with the cruel fascist high official. After the gunshots, the child's crying stopped, and the next scene turned to the expressions of all the Jews, who looked at each other quietly, The discomfort is indescribable, and they still have to do what they have to do in the panorama after that. Helpless, there is no way, because they know that the impulsive resistance is only death, and only by waiting can they take revenge.
3. The third profound scene is that among the 13 people who escaped, one must be chosen to pull the back, otherwise the fascist high-ranking officials will choose 50 innocent people to kill them, and they have to choose their dearest friends or the most innocent people. My dear, when an elderly father holds his son, I see his trembling hands and despair, which is so uncomfortable.
4. When the high-ranking officials told everyone to not close their eyes and not to bow their heads, a few close-ups magnified people's feelings of fear and helplessness, the woman's pain and fear, and the young girl caught at the moment of the gunshot. Holding the hand of the boy next to me, these reactions are too real, too isolated and too scared, and so on, the small details of the picture make me feel so real.
5. When they were sorting Jewish luggage, the faces of the stuffed toy dolls and the pictures of the letters they brought with them kept switching. I was saddened to the extreme. I remembered the children and women at the beginning of the movie - the arrival at Sobibor. He was brutally killed a few hours later.
6. The last picture is the scene of everyone fleeing together with Venus forest music, which pushes people towards freedom to a climax, but some people still pray in place of fear (but the ending is not good for them, no. were killed in two days). Those who crossed the minefield and tried to smash the barbed wire and fought back with weapons all the way, just to find a way out alive, some people hooked their skirts, some people had blood on their hands, some people fell and so on. Through the switching of scenes and music, people are extremely excited. This is the cry of the free, the resistance to power, and the courage to live.
They let the world remember that there was such an unforgettable history.
Additional background understanding (Wikipedia):
Unlike many other Nazi concentration camps, Sobibor was built specifically to exterminate Jews as part of Operation Reinhard , the deadliest phase of the Final Solution . The vast majority of prisoners were sent to the gas chambers to be killed within hours of their arrival , except for the very few who were forced to work as slave laborers to help the camp run. According to statistics, between 200,000 and 250,000 Jews were killed in Sobibor, making it the fourth-largest extermination camp for Jews after Auschwitz-Birkenau , Treblinka and Belzec .
Sobibor is best known for the prisoner's uprising on October 14, 1943, which is often described as the most successful uprising the Nazi extermination camp has ever seen. The rebel plan developed by Alexander Pechersky and Leon Feldhendler involved two phases: In the first phase, teams of prisoners would assassinate all officers on duty in dispersed locations . In the second phase, all 600 prisoners will assemble for a roll call and walk out the gates. However, the uprising did not go as planned. The operation was discovered while several SS officers were still alive, and the prisoners eventually had to escape over barbed wire fences and dashed through a minefield under heavy machine gun fire. Even so, about 300 prisoners were evacuated from the camp, of which about 60 survived until the end of the war.
