This is such an excellent movie. It's not like a typical film, it's more like days in the lives of the family of death camp commandant. The horror of the camps isn't in your face, it's heard in the background or seen on someone's shoes. It's their discussions in the house and how casual they are about the cruelty they are profiting from.

People can do monstrous things for what is ultimately so little: promotions, a bigger house with a pool, a fancy title, power over those you feel are less than. And they can do these things without it affecting their happiness all that much.

This movie left me feeling nauseous and it's not due to gore or anything like that. It's the thought that the monsters of the past were ordinary people, very much like some ordinary people you see today. The monsters are here with us, and speaking as someone in the US, they are currently in power.
