And Along Come Tourists
A contemporary story set in the town of Auschwitz where a young German makes his civil service while working at the museum and taking care of an Holocaust survivor. The film shows that while the museum is active and people talk about the Holocaust, there's apathy and ignorance all around including the protagonist Sven who discovers the huge burden of the survivor who refuses to turn his back on the camp but has to deal with the daily ignorance. The film shows a different side of the issues and raises some interesting questions about the contemporary world. It's not that people are ignorant on purpose but they are busy living life and its daily struggles where the history no matter how atrocious has taken a back seat for the future. YRCinema's coverage of upcoming releases.
