Night and Fog

"Night and Fog" was a historical documentary film that showed us how the prisoners of World War 2 were treated during the Holocaust. It showed how the concentration camp system started from fascism. People would arrive on over crowded trains to the concentration camps, like Auschwitz. Many people died on the travel due to sicknesses and starvation. If you didn't die on the over crowded trains, then there was a great chance that you would end up dying in the concetration camps. The film was very mind boggling and powerful eventhough it was black and white. The movie showed many appauling scenes and images of dead boney skeleton bodies, piles of clothes and shoes, piles of women's hair and crematory ovens. "Night and Fog" was a documentary that showed what actually really happened while "Schindlers List" was the Hollywood version of what happened during the Holocaust. They both may have been different versions but they both showed me how much suffering the prisoners had to go through.
