"Not for the faint of heart seeing the gruesome images of the Mathausen concentration camp.
To me it was a really good film, especially to hear it in its native language (Spanish) about what Francesc did to preserve the photos the Nazis took and have proof to be able to have some of the Nazi leaders accountable for their crimes on the people they imprisoned and killed there when the war was over.
I can’t imagine how hard it must have been to reenact some of the scenes for the concentration camp. The acting was great depicting the emotions, the fear, and anxiousness of the people, the atmosphere in the environment."
"The spanish people were running away from the war looking for a safe place; they come across the concentration camps were they began a to live as slaves and the main character is trying to scape but wants to take all the pics that he took with him. I love how even in hard times they found the time to create true friendships."
"Good historical piece."
