Film Lesson: Schindler's List

The Schindler's List illustrated the Holocaust, because it explained how life was during that time and how many people lived and how they were treated by the germans. We were able to see how the Jews were treated first in the Ghettos, then in the Labor Camps and Finally in the concentration camps (Aushwitiz). The film also illustrated how the Jewstried to hide and to escape, but they had no where else to go and the nazi's had no compassion and killed them like they were killing animals. Also the childrens were separated from their parents and were nver brought back together because most of them died. But in the film there was one man that could save most of the Jews because they worked for him and he was one of the Nazi member. His name was Schindler and if you made it on his list there was a lot of possibilities of not being killed because he would save you.


The Scenes that I think that was most powerful for me was Aushwitiz. It was horrible to see how they get burned just like if there animals that had no life. It was very terrible to watch how they were treated because they would kill you and they won't even feel anything inside them like why I did this? These kind of people were very agressive and treated the Jews like a piece of crap and didn't care about them.

The Image that will stay in me was the Little girl with the pink jacket running and trying to hide so she won't get killed and also how Schindler saw the little girl like if she meant something to him or giving a signal of how the people were being treated and that she didn't want to be one of them. He was very sad at the way the jews were treated but he couldn't do anything, the only thing he could do was save the people that worked for him and nothing else.
