I saw this earlier. Not sure if it's right to call it a film, it's very slow.
Auschwitz is there but just in the background, and that's what makes it so haunting.
You mostly see smoke from a chimney or a train coming in, and just the buildings. That's it, and it's crazy. The sound is a big deal too, with people screaming and gunshots.
There's this bit where her husband gets sent to Berlin, and she's is furious She fights to stay with the kids in the commandant’s house, demanding to be allowed to stay behind with the children in the commandant’s quarters because this is the best place to raise the children. She calls herself the "Queen of Auschwitz" and is all about her garden and greenhouse, like she can't even smell the bodies burning or the screams.
It shows how the Nazis made it so you could live right next door to all this suffering and somehow be okay with it. The level of dehumanising was insane.
This is definitely one those films that will stay with you

Don't understand A24's slow rollout. You got a film getting love during award season, you'd think you want as many eyes to see it as possible

After watching it I can understand. It probably should go direct to streaming. We have a streaming service called mubi which is more European/art/indi films this will definitely only appear on that
