    schindler's list - Incredible moment where the camera leaves the main narrative, very subtly, to show some of horrific things occurring. No dialogue.
    There's a German soldier in bg watching over a guilt-ridden diamond inspector, and a character putting the belongings of others in a box.
    Schindler's List is a 1993 American epic historical drama film directed and produced by Steven Spielberg and written by Steven Zaillian. It is based on the 1982 non-fiction novel Schindler's Ark by Australian novelist Thomas Keneally. The film follows Oskar Schindler, a German industrialist who saved more than a thousand mostly Polish-Jewish refugees from the Holocaust by employing them in his factories during World War II. It stars Liam Neeson as Schindler, Ralph Fiennes as SS officer Amon Göth and Ben Kingsley as Schindler's Jewish accountant Itzhak Stern.

    I was in 5th grade when i first learned about the Holocaust. My teacher came up with this EXCELLENT exercise as to demonstrate this exact scene.
    She told us to go home and collect all our most cherished belongings, pictures, toys etc. and to carry what we could in a single shoe box. (This would be the example of how the Jews were mobilized and only allowed one suitcase to travel)
    Then we would bring our shoe boxes to school, our teacher told us to select 3 items from our box and to do a little "show-and-tell" to explain their significance to us.
    Then, after everyone was done showing. She had us stack our boxes in a corner, before telling us all of it would be either destoryed, or sold off for profit.
    The looks on our faces, and the SUNKEN feeling i had in the pit of my stomach when she said that, I can still feel it to this day.
    I will always be grateful to my 5th grade teacher in showing us a minimal PRECIPICE of agony that these people went through. It was a real eye opener, a lesson that i will never forget.

    This movie was downright depressing for the most part due to the sheer brutality displayed, but this scene in particular is a whole other level of sadness.. no blood or killing, just the idea of personal affects and belongings never to be reunited with its owners, topped off by the photographs of people giving us a glimpse of the faces that were later taken from the world. Very eerie.

    For me it’s the photos Just piled up to be burnt
    If you’re under 30 and all your photos are on digital devices this may not hit as hard
    But these are memories that will ultimately be destroyed
    Ask most people what possessions they will try to save from a house fire and most above a certain age will say their family photos
    It’s the callousness that there are thousands of moments piled up but have no value to those doing to taking and the realisation that the people who truly value them will probably soon either be dead or possibly not even be able to remember what the people in those pics looked like

Obviously a lot the kids in both facilities weren’t angels. BUT I will say this... working in those places made me realize how easy it is for a Holocaust to happen
    So many workers think of themselves so highly and see the kids as “fuckers” or “little fuckers”. A lot of workers seriously have a huge ego problem and have no empathy at all. I understand you need to be firm but at the same time you can see how quick and easy it is for guards to dehumanize the group they are “watching over”.

      When I learned that Dönitz gave away watches to members of his fleet he considered deserving of a gift, I was suspicious already, and then it was revealed that those watches were all different makes, had different bracelets or chains, etc -- and then I had to think of photos I saw. Those were photos of heaps of glasses, shoes and female hair, but watches were, no doubt, stolen as well. One thing that stuck with me when I saw a pile of hair I noticed a braid. Most likely a young girl's. The lives of adults count just as much as those of children, but children simply appeal to our emotions. In the movie, Schindler underwent a big change, too, when he spotted the girl in the red coat walking around for shelter. Up to that point, he was largely indifferent to the plight of the Jews. Unlike Goeth, he never tricked himself into believing that the Jews were livestock instead of human beings, but he was turning a blind eye to the full extent of what was going on.

And the Jew dressed up like a rabbi, and with an alarm clock around his neck so he could see to it that the Jews did not spend too much time when going to the toilet. He was called the shit master.

This type of thought process was aimed at the totalitarian idea of the complete domination of man with no thought of how human morality is governed by such ideas as the so called `rights of man`. These ideas have been beautifully presented by hannah arendt in her superlative book `the origins of totalitarianism. A fantastic book.

    The depiction of the systematized theft of Jewish personal property is even more a punch to the gut for me than the latter, more viscerally horrific scene of the burning mound of incinerated bodies. Lacking any brutal act of violence or gory murder scene is directly shown here, Spielberg allows the camera to stray from the main narrative so to purposefully linger for a brief but impactful moment on the immense-human dimension of the Holocaust. Here, the appropriated property of the Nazi's victims act as metaphorical proxies to the murdered victims themselves, the doomed deportees's personal belongings serving as a somber metaphor for the countless individual lives callously swept up and destroyed. This directorial choice makes for a subtly effective way to humanize this awful historic event's 6 million score victims without risking the film's established tone by haphazardly inserting an overly sentimental or emotionally gratuitous expository elements into the tight narrative. A masterclass in cinematic storytelling!

      That's likely a pile of "garbage" in the process of sorting everything. Stuff like jewelry, clothing, and watches can be used in different ways, but photographs have no "useful" value to the Nazis, aside from perhaps meager amounts of tinder/fuel for fires. They're only separating them from everything else so they know what can be destroyed immediately and what can be preserved for later use.
      It really highlights the cruelty of what the Nazis were doing that they hold so little value in what the photos' original owners likely saw as some of their most precious possessions.
