Jessica Kiang Variety Armchair historians and amateur photographers alike may get a lot from this quietly reverent, unashamedly educational experience. Nov 23, 2017 Full Review Neil Young Hollywood Reporter Dealing in an intelligent and original manner with antisemitism and nationalistic propaganda in the context of "ordinary" folks' lives, it deserves wide exposure at documentary-oriented festivals and far beyond. Aug 9, 2017 Full Review Laura Clifford Reeling Reviews a masterful cinematic recreation of history, showing us a decaying, innocent world while telling us how what we do not see is destroying it. Rated: B+ May 2, 2019 Full Review Robin Clifford Reeling Reviews The matter of fact narration of the terrible events combined with the benign-looking photos - some depict children giving the Heil Hitler salute - is a chilling look into a history that, if we are not careful, may repeat itself.
