Sex & Nudity
-
- The film contains several scenes depicting nudity in a non-sexual context. Nudity is shown in scenes where Jewish prisoners are forced to strip naked or dead bodies are removed from the gas chambers. However, all the nudity is mostly out of focus and almost nothing is distinctly shown (a corpse's breast is in focus in periphery of one scene).

Profanity

Frightening & Intense Scenes
-
- At the beginning of the film there is a scene where the main character, Saul collects the coats and belongings of the victims sent into the gas chamber. In the background, screaming and banging on the chamber door can be heard. Knowing what is happening, this scene is quite hard to watch.
- The film follows a man named Saul Auslander during the Holocaust while he attempts to seek out a Rabbi in one of his nearby concentration camps in an attempt to bury a boy. Just by this description alone it should be easy to tell this film isn't for the faint of heart. It contains a lot of disturbing, faithful to reality content that is not for the faint of heart.
- The ending is incredibly depressing. The film's atmosphere is intense and bleak all throughout, not for the faint of heart similar to Idi i smotri (1985), but nowhere nearly as disturbing.
Spoilers
Violence & Gore
- Saul, the doctor, 'Rabbi,' and all other men he escapes with are found and shot off screen at the end of the film.
- A lot of violence is either off screen or out of focus. During an assault someone's head is seen getting blown off, with a bloody mist being seen in the background.
