"The Film Unfinished"-Veronica Willbanks


The film unfinished was a propaganda film recorded by the Nazis to make it seem like the Jewish communities were living a normal life but in reality that was not the case. The Jews were being made to act like everything was normal. I just can't figure out how people can be so cruel. They were throwing bodies into huge graves and burring them. They had no respect for them it was disgusting. The corpses lay on the sidewalk and the other Jews had to walk by them. When they picked up the corpses they did not do so with care they showed them falling off the cart that they put them on. They also just through the bodies around. It was very heat wrenching for me to watch. The ladies watching I felt it was really hard to see them watching the film and how emotional it was for them. To make people strip down and bath in front of a camera is just disrespectful. The Nazis would make them heard together so to speak like they were running from something just to film it. They tried to make the ghettos look better than they really were. It was heart breaking to watch how malnourished the Jews were and how they were treated. To me they were treated like animals. No one deserves to be treated that way just because of their religion. My question would be were the cameramen Jews to or were they Nazis? That’s the one thing I wasn’t sure about. Because the one they were interviewing in the film to me acted more like a Jew then a Nazi either that or he just felt really bad about what he had done to them. I am glad that the film was found because of the people that say the holocaust never happened there is proof. I am also glad that there are survivors to tell their story to let the world know about all the terrible stuff the Nazis did to the Jews. I am sorry for all their pain and suffering that they had to endure.

  1. I agree, makes me wonder too if the filmmakers were Jews or Nazis. Maybe just guilty Nazis
