Arthouse: Son of Saul

In the organizer's words:

HU 2015 | 107 min. | Director: László Nemes | OmU | FSK 16

The Hungarian Jew Saul Ausländer is part of the so-called "Sonderkommando" in the Auschwitz-Birkenau concentration camp. His job is to lead his fellow prisoners into the gas chambers and then burn their corpses. When Saul believes he recognizes his son in a boy who has been killed, he decides to give the child a funeral according to Jewish tradition. His search for a rabbi takes him to the various sections of the camp as he continues to work within the machinery of extermination.

This event is being held in cooperation with the Steinwache Dortmund Memorial (Dortmund City Archive).
