Tonight I watched The Attic and Fateless, two holocaust films.
The Attic: The Hiding of Anne Frank is a 1988 TV film based on Miep Gies' book Anne Frank Remembered. The film tells the true story of Gies' struggle to keep the family hidden and safe, as the Nazis turn Amsterdam upside-down. (Based upon Gies' memoirs and Anne Frank's famous diary).
Fateless is the story of a Hungarian teenage boy who is sent to concentration camps at Auschwitz, Buchenwald, and Zeitz. It's apparently semi-autobiographal.
Both are really good if you like these sorts of films. The first one is English speaking and Pretty sad, while the second is Hungarian speaking, subbed in lots of languages (Including Swedish) and is possibly one of the saddest films I've ever seen.
I'd reccomend both films to anyone who enjoys Holocaust films.
