Foreign, German SubtitlesVery special . . . one-of-a-kind movie about German people during WWII. Unfortunately, it takes 50 years for people to come to grips with the horror of making war on others.
Very well acted drama about Jews on the run and German farmers caught up in the terror of hiding Jews. As you would expect, this is not pleasant entertainment.
If you are interested in how and why good, law abiding people get involved in killing others, I suggest you read, or listen to, "The Lucifer effect : Understanding how good people turn evil by Philip G. Zimbardo". Not well edited. Better to listen to parts on CD.
Saviors in the Night is based on the experiences of Marga Spiegel, whose memoirs became a bestseller in Germany. She is currently 98 years old and still lives in Germany.
