Son of Saul
Why we chose it
This debut by an unknown Hungarian director shook the world, winning the Grand Prix at Cannes and the Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film. At its centre is the poet Géza Röhrig, who wrote his first collection of poems after a visit to Auschwitz.
Synopsis
Saul, a Hungarian prisoner at Auschwitz-Birkenau in October 1944, belongs to the Sonderkommando, the Jewish work units forced to help carry out the mass killings. Beside one of the crematoria he finds the body of a boy he takes to be his own son. As the others plan an uprising, Saul searches for a rabbi to say the burial rites, determined to lay the boy to rest with dignity.
