Summary |
"On a cruise ship following World War II, a camp overseer recognizes someone who may or may not have been one of her prisoners at Auschwitz. This chance meeting triggers a series of flashbacks that ultimately speak to the complexities of domination and suffering, but also to the ever-present possibilities for resistance. After the film director, Andrej Munk, died in a car accident, his colleagues completed the project posthumously"--Taken from cover |
