I suppose I could have said heavy spoilers, because honestly, there's not much else, but truly, experiencing this film is still incredibly visceral even if you know everything that's about to happen.
Watched this last night with the family. This movie was so well done, and your write-up is excellent.
What struck me as I watched was how I found myself getting caught up in the politics of Rudolf's job situation and in the nuanced interactions of their marriage. I was getting sucked in to the "normalness" of their lives and into the story right in front of me. It took effort to stay connected and engaged with the off screen horrors. Like you, it challenged me to think about the way that I respond (or not) to atrocities happening in our world today.
I didn't even know yet what this one was about. Great review.

I'm sure it is. I expect spoilers here. If I don't want em I just come back after I finally see the thing.
