It is difficult to describe the mood in the process of watching with some exact language. In this dark page that can never be forgotten in human history, all images and words seem to be too pale.
Compared with Schindler's list, the documentary video technique brings a kind of horror to the audience, and the despair contained in it is so deep into the bone marrow. Of course, it's not that Spielberg's movies are bad, but in the face of such a heavy history, any form of expression seems too child's play. Behind the rescue of more than 2,000 people is the tragedy of a full six million people. , the story selected in the film is a small cross-section in a tragic history of suffering. What should we do to truly look at this history correctly, and why do human beings do such unconscionable things to their own kind?
It is true that in the face of the sincere attitude and practice of the German government today, we really can’t ask for anything more, but what we should think about more is what human beings have reflected from this history, and how can we truly do it? To avoid the recurrence of tragedies, whether what human beings have done on certain historical development paths must be as reasonable as they seem on the surface, and whether there are so-called objective laws to control the development of history as a whole, or Humanity is currently unknowingly heading for the abyss step by step. The whole society is promoting the truth, the good and the beautiful, but in the end, the evil side of human nature is always shrouded in our heads.
The sins buried in the ruins are like an old monster falling forever under the rubble. When these images pass, we pretend to be hopeful again, as if the misery in the concentration camps is healed. We are blind to everything around us and deaf to the never-ending cry of human nature. Some people refuse to believe, or only temporarily believe that all this tragic thing only occurs once in a certain time and place.
