“A Film Unfinished” is a documentary based off of certain parts of the Holocaust in which this film was never meant to be revealed to anyone. And right after the war was lost for Germany, this video was pieced together.
The film itself was made up of the average life in the ghettos, the only difference between the actual ghetto and what was filmed was the simple fact that there were plays and acts put together in order for the film crew to obtain certain scenes, even though most of these scenes were staged.
The people in the ghettos, the Jews, had been either placed in a certain part of a town with walls around it or they were already living in a town where walls were built up around their current living quarters. IN such places, the laws were strict with little to no health care whatsoever and jobs were as few and far between as finding somewhere to do personal hygiene. People died daily, just passing out in the street due to hunger and what not. One of the jobs that some Jewish members did was to literally go around and pick up the dead bodies wherever they found them with a cart, haul them back to the dead house, and then go back out for more picking up of dead people.
Going back to having strict laws, if someone was found smuggling food, they were shot in front of everyone. And not just those laws, but some of the practices such as a mass of people had to watch a play and laugh whenever they were told to laugh and also they could not relieve themselves of any bodily functions that a normal person could. One such strange event took place whenever there were a couple of healthier men and women chosen to go in and take a bath to wash themselves as they thought, shortly after washing themselves, they were all shoot to death in the frigid water.
This was only some of the harshness that happened to the Jewish people in the ghettos.
