Excellent in all aspects recreating horror of day to day life in the death camp, slowly revealing true horror of what goes on there. From opening scene at the railway station 'welcoming' jewish guests to nazi reprisals for escapes, to final scenes in which highly organised escape takes place, a gripping but horrifying account of man's inhumanity to man. Even final credits poignant as they reveal fate of the various characters seen after the escape. Every one should see this film.
