As my title says "profound" couldn't describe this film better.. I mean at the end you think that there was no point to that ending at all...Bit as you think on it after a while you come to the conclusion that the holocaust had no meaning to it and that itself was confusing and the eternal lasting question WHY? Yes! A good film that brings back the reality to the question..

I've watched several Holocaust genre movies (and read a LOT of the related literature) but I can honestly say I was really affected by this film. The movie is spoken mostly in French with English subtitles; don't let this put you off - it doesn't spoil the film AT ALL, it in a way adds to it, if that makes sense? After watching so many WW2 related films you can become somewhat desensitised to the horror of it all but I can hand-on-heart say this film actually had me crying and I was glued from start to finish; the fact that it's a true story rather than it being based on one like some of the films makes it all the more compelling. I rate this movie 10/10 - I loved it ❤

I loved the fact that this was based on a true story but the film took a couple of hours before you saw Victor in the concentration camp fighting and there was only one boxing match that you saw. It was far too long drawn out for my liking.
