Why it’s a Monday Morning Maybe
With a box office flop and almost no lasting buzz, this one could be a tough watch. Keep your phone handy.
Based on critics, audiences, awards, box office and buzz. Details below.Is it for you?
- Who'll love it
- Made for fans of prison dramas and anyone interested in what war does to people. The walls close in, and so does the tension. If you loved Night and Fog or Shoah, start here. It puts you in the middle of the fighting, and doesn't let you forget the cost.
- The mood
- Eye-opening.
- The pace
- Moves through the story clearly, at 32 min. An easy one to fit in on a school night.
- What might put you off
- It's in French, so expect subtitles (or a dub).
- Made in 1946: an older pace and style.
- Skip it if you want made-up drama tonight.
Live footage from concentration camps after the liberation, and the complex transport and lodging of masses of prisoners of war and other deported people back to their home countries, at the end of World War II. A 45min 35mm print also exists (shown at Cinémathèque française in 2023).
