Schindlers List
In the movie the Holocaust, the movie starts with the Weis family wedding, giving a sense of happiness and change. The people getting married are Carl, a Jew and Inga, a German. Their friend is discovered at the wedding to be a Nazi and he warns them of a change that is coming that is going to be for the worse. But Dr. Weis, the pharmacist/doctor of the family, Carl's father, refuses to believe it. When the changes start happening, business is going bad for the Jews. Dr. Weis's practice is being taken away from him. He is going to be transported to the Jewish ghetto in Warsaw. The family stays behind with Inga. The Germans take Carl to a work camp where he gets in trouble and is put under hard labor. Meanwhile, Mrs. Weis and her children are in Inga's house but Inga's parents are Germans and they don't want Jews in their house anymore. And they encourage the Weis women to leave. Inga doesn't want them to go because they are her family too. Carl's little brother leaves to go join the partisans in the resistance. The littlest daughter, has a temper tantrum, runs out of the house, tears off her Jewish star and gets raped. She comes back home to be forever changed.
What they didn't know was that the German's were getting rid of the physically and mentally disabled first before the persecution of the normal Jews. They also did not want to believe about the mass murder of Jews going on in other parts of Europe. Weis starts a school for the ghetto children and the counsel is ordered to bring six thousand Jews a day to the trains to be transported to "family camps" which were really death camps. The Germans crush their hands with their guns. In the concentration (work) camp, Carl is working to the bone and he wants to see his wife Inga, but he can't because she is a German. They spark the resistance that lasts for months. Weis was appointed one of the counsel members of the Warsaw Ghetto. Carl's two friends are killed and Carl is taken to Auschwitz. Carl knowing is death his near, asks his friend from the first concentration camp to give him something to draw on. They hide in the woods and find that everyone is being lead to their death. In conclusion I would like to say that this movie touched me in many ways. While in the resistance, they get married. They find a German soldier that has been wounded and left behind and they begin to help him. The prisoners are freed; he had died just before they rescued them.
