The images and sounds from A24's "Zone of Interest," which has earned a little over $24 million at the global box office, have haunted me since that weekend.
AdvertisementUnlike most Holocaust films, Jonathan Glazer, the director of "The Zone of Interest," tells the story from the perpetrators' — and thus the murderers' — perspective.
More precisely, he tells the story of Rudolf Höss, the camp commander of Auschwitz, one of the worst criminals of National Socialism.
'Zone of Interest' perfectly captures a life with no loveA still from "The Zone of Interest."
Shortly after the meeting, the Höss family once again goes swimming in the river.
