A wonderful flower in the desert of humanity

I haven't watched a few films about concentration camps, but this one made me see different aspects of the concentration camps under the German army. The upper-level officers did not regard Jews as human beings at all, and the lower-level Jews walked into the gas chambers in deception and panic. Death, the so-called contingent in the middle is precisely a mediator between two opposing classes, they work for the Nazis, but they are essentially Jews who will be executed sooner or later, while they work numbly, they plan to be executed at the same time. Before doing a great job, it is difficult to say whether Sol's idea of finding a priest to be extravagant in such an environment is selfish or noble, but it only makes us think about whether we should respect life in the desert of human nature.
