During World War II, a Jewish worker (Géza Röhrig) at the Auschwitz concentration camp tries to find a rabbi to give a child a proper burial.

In Hungarian with English subtitles

“The back of a man’s head.  He’s a Hungarian Jew in a Nazi gas chamber forced to gather possessions and clean up after the exterminations. The prisoners are forced into the chamber. The clang of the door. But the camera follows him, its square frame tracks him.  It can’t, or won’t, take its eyes off him.  It’s like this for the whole film.  Surrounded by atrocity, his face is blank. Bangs, screams.  The sound comes from every direction, but the image follows him like the TV camera follows the ball in a football match.  One of the most rigorous visual ideas in recent film.” – Mark Cousins
