Description:
The Zone of Interest, a historical drama from Jonathan Glazer, adapts Martin Amis’s novel to the screen. It follows the Höss family and the chilling banality of life near Auschwitz, showing how ordinary routines can shelter extraordinary cruelty. With restrained dialogue, austere imagery, and a hushed mood, the film probes memory, guilt, and moral complicity in atrocity. A stark meditation on power, responsibility, and the human cost of genocide.
