This is an outstanding piece of film making Joseph S does an excellent job directing this movie. His leading lady Christing Lahti steals the show completely she is 100% believable as Gisella Perl. This movie is based on the book "I was a Doctor In Auswitz", written by Dr Gisella Perl. The thing that really impressed me about Ms Lahti's work on this was the accent. She not only hits brilliantly but also delivers a performance to be both reckoned with and remembered. This film depicts the holocaust in to my way of thinking a very real way. There is one scene with a small baby that had me choking up it was tastefully done and acted to perfection. This is one of my all time favorite movies. I hope readers here get to watch it and that you all enjoy it as much as i did. I lack words to praise this picture or Ms Lahti's work on it enough......
