Step into one of the most chilling films of recent years. Set on the outskirts of Auschwitz, the story follows commandant Rudolf Höss and his family as they construct a picture‑perfect, idyllic life just metres away from unthinkable horror. Jonathan Glazer’s direction is razor‑sharp and deeply unsettling, capturing calm domestic moments with an eerie stillness while the reality beyond their garden wall seeps into every frame.
With remarkable performances from Christian Friedel and Sandra Hüller, this is a masterful, haunting piece of cinema that holds you in its grip long after it ends.
