There are a lot of movies about Nazi Germany during World War II, but not many really impress the audience. On the one hand, it is because there are very few parts of such topics that can be excavated. On the other hand, everyone is very familiar with the history of the Nazis. If you want to win the plot, either tamper with history like Quentin and make everyone happy. Or, like this movie, cleverly telling the story from a peculiar angle. The two little boys in the film are very cute and cute, especially the Jewish little boy with missing front teeth. His timid look is real. The struggles and changes of the German soldiers and their families came suddenly. When the protagonist’s sister covered her home with Nazi propaganda posters, her mother’s expression revealed a kind of hesitation and worry that is customary under dictatorship. The final ending of the movie is cruel and ironic. The father, who has always insisted strongly that "what he does is for the future of the country", stands in the rain and has nothing to say, with a face of remorse. When the little boy in the film asks the Jewish boy why he is starving and why he has to work and put on striped pajamas, the Jewish boy winks his eyes and says "I'm Jewish" in a sad low voice. Seeing this, my heart trembled, not only for this child, but also for war and persecution.
