Adapted from the novel of the same name by Martin Amis, Jonathan Glazer's film focuses on the everyday life of Auschwitz commander Rudolf Höss, his wife Hedwig, their children, and servants. As the happy family lives in their magnificent house facing the wall of the death camp, the sounds of torture and screams are heard from the other side of the wall. Winner of the “Grand Prix” at Cannes and the “Best International Feature Film” Award at the Oscars, Zone of Interest is a film that will stay with you, for better or worse, thanks in no small part to Mica Levi's impressive score and Łukasz Żal's cinematography.
