The Boy In The Striped Pajamas

This is a movie adapted from John Boyne's novel on a forbidden friendship between a eight-year-old German boy and a Jewish concentration camp prisoner in World War II-era Germany. The show bring us through the friendship of this 2 boys which is touching as they break past the barriers of their differences and defying the rules set by the adults. As they engage in their innocent and genuine friendship, little did they know the reality of the larger context and what is soon to happen to them. You will be drawn to the boy, Breuno who has beautiful blue eyes and such an intense look. It has a sad and disturbing ending which is quite abrupt and leaves the audience hanging dry. The reality hits real deep, makes you think about what the extent of inhumanity people can resort to. It made me cringe in my seat.
